Installing plugins (ubuntu)
« on: August 16, 2014, 11:37:48 pm »
Hi all,

I am trying to install one of the contrib plugins. I already have codeblocks installed under ubuntu. I found the plugin source in the svn repo for codeblocks. I checked out the trunk, opened the relevant plugin codeblocks project file and built with my original version of cb. It built fine.

I followed the wiki to help me make the .cbplugin from the .so file and the manifest.xml

I tried to install the .cbplugin through the plugin manager in cb and it just says "one or more plugins were not installed successfully".

I suspect the problem is to do with me building the plugin with my version of codeblocks that I got from apt-get instead of from building codeblocks manually from the same source that contained the plugins.

Any ideas on how I can get this working?

Install codeblocks-contrib packages belonging to you installed C::B-version from the repo you use.
