Title: Which version
Post by: Naya on March 13, 2008, 03:31:04 pm

Hello,

I not very used to linux... I started a new work and I no choice but to use it.
I would like to install Code::Blocks but I don't know which version I should download. There is the choice between ubuntu, debian, f or suse.
My linux is a red hat scientific linux.
Could you tell me which version is the more appropriate ?

Thank you very much

Naya

There is no build for Red Hat Enterprise Linux available (yet), but maybe the Fedora package can be adopted through EPEL (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) ?

There's some related information (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_RPM_based_distributions) in the Code::Blocks wiki, but it might be a tad out of date. Assuming you are running version 5 ?

Oops, it had already been updated. Packages are available at:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/4/i386/repoview/codeblocks.html
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/repoview/codeblocks.html
Or use a command like yum install codeblocks, or similar...

They're a bit old, but will probably be updated to 8.02 soon ?

If you need wxGTK, it should be available from the same repo.

Yes, they will :-) See the epel-testing repository after a few days.
