Can't start Code::Blocks on Fedora 7

(1/3) > >>

tron_thomas:
I am running Fedora 7 on an Intel Core2 Duo system.  I installed Code::Blocks using yum, and when I run it, I end up with a blank Tip of the Day window I cannot close, which seems to prevent me from access the IDE's user interface.

What can I try that might allow me successful run Code::Blocks?

Biplab:
AFAIK, Fedora 7 is shipped with wxGTK-2.8.3. wxGTK-2.8.3 has a nasty bug which hangs C::B at start-up. Please upgrade to wxGTK-2.8.4.

tron_thomas:
It doesn't look like there's an update to wxGTX-2.8.4 available in YUM for Fedora 7 yet.  It looks like I might have to wait for that update before I can run Code::Blocks.

raph:
Why not compile wxgtk from sources?

tron_thomas:
I will have to decide if I have the time for that.  If it takes too long for the update to come out, I might consider building it myself.
