If I interprete the version-numbers correctly, the install is from the ubuntus repo.
Ubuntu uses modified control-files, so you should ask the ubuntu devs.
What you can try is apt-get install codeblocks
or use a graphical package-manager like synaptic.
Uninstalling C::B and reinstalling it can also be an option, the config-files are below the users home-dir and should not be touched in any case.
