Where is the linux binary?

[Jorg]

Hi there,

I want to try Code::Blocks under linux (Suse 10) but all I can find are sources or windows binaries. When I want to configure the source from the tar.gz version, I cannot find a configure script. Only a configure.in. How do I go about doing that?

Also, when I want to install the rpm I get the following error:

burgess:/home/jorg/tmp # rpm -i codeblocks-1.0-rc2.src.rpm
warning: user daniel does not exist - using root
warning: user daniel does not exist - using root

Why do I need a user daniel?

I really want to try this IDE. But everything I try seems to work against me ;-)

Regards,

Check out http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Compiling_Code::Blocks_in_Linux_(applies_to_all_distros) first, then come back if things still wont work.

Here is a list I'm mantaining of linux binaries made from different people

So here's the linux binary for SUSE 10.0 (i686 | x86_64)

Guys I am really honored by all this, it seems my reputation has surpassed me ;-)

Thanks for the info, I am still lacking a good IDE under Linux and I have heard so many good things about Code::Blocks, I can't wait to try it out!

ps. Sorry if I missed the obvious and it sounded a bit uhmm impatient or frustrated, I should have tried this at a different time then past twelve 'o clock ...

The thing that worked for me (SuSE10) was:

- install wxGTK, wxGTK-compat, wxGTK-gl and wxGTK-devel packages and it's dependencies (via YaST, using one of the official SuSE servers here)

and

1. Download the source RPM from www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml

2. Build the binary package as root

rpmbuild --rebuild codeblocks-1.0-rc2.src.rpm

3. The binary RPM should be in one of the subdirectories of /usr/src/packages/RPMS

and then:

rpm -i binary_RPM_name

PS. Daniel is creator of this source rpm

Only in a few circles, tho (actually I looked up your e-mail on Google, sorry for the disappointment. )

[Jorg]

Don't be .. it's always nice when people recognise you, but if they don't hey no biggy ;-)

I guess it is easy to recognise one another when we are all present in the wxWidgets circles. I own a wx forum, and I am sure a few you the Code::Blocks devels and users have posted on there.
