Hi,

I'm getting errors while installing the deb file, I've installed everything needed to support the installation of code blocks (this and that)

back track 5 is based on Ubuntu Lucid.

root@bt:~# dpkg -i i386/codeblocks_10.05-1_i386.deb
Selecting previously deselected package codeblocks.
(Reading database ... 215056 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking codeblocks (from .../codeblocks_10.05-1_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of codeblocks:
codeblocks depends on libcodeblocks0 (= 10.05-1); however:
 Package libcodeblocks0 is not installed.
codeblocks depends on codeblocks-common (= 10.05-1); however:
 Package codeblocks-common is not installed.
dpkg: error processing codeblocks (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Processing triggers for menu ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
codeblocks
root@bt:~# codeblocks
codeblocks: error while loading shared libraries: libcodeblocks.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

what should I do? I think is has something to do with wxwidgets(?)

Thanks.

Hm, have you read the text you've pasted?
It pretty match describes the solution to your problem. Install libcodeblocks0.deb and codeblocks-common.deb before codeblocks.deb.
Or use one command to install them in one go. I think this was supported by dpkg, but I may be wrong (of course, not a deb/ubuntu user).

p.s. Please next time use code tags for pasted text. It makes posts way more readable.
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

You are right !

dpkg -i [all the packages seperated by spaces]

To use a more recent nightly build, you can try my repo: http://apt.jenslody.de/
It works for debian (of course) and also for ubuntu, so it will most likely work for back track also.
