Trying to compile and install gambas on OpenSuSE 10.2
« on: March 11, 2007, 11:48:09 AM »
Hello,
I am trying to compile gambas-1.0.17 with OpenSuSE 10.2 and checkinstall (in
order to inform the rpm-database of the installation).
There are two problems:

1. configure does not seem to find Mysql - although it is there and running

and

2. when installing with checkinstall I get:
Creating the library info files...
/usr/bin/gbi: Command not found
make[2]: *** [install-exec-local] Error 127
and checkinstall aborts

Any idea what is wrong?

Thanks for help.

When compiling Gambas on OpenSUSE make sure the version of Gambas shipped by SUSE is not installed on your system. This can cause conflicts.

For MySQL make sure you have the client development package installed as well as the client and server. Its this this package Gambas uses to make itself a client.  This is called mysql-devel and it is not installed by default.
