Code::Blocks

Postby KDM » 11 Dec 2008, 12:41

Hey. I downloaded Code::Blocks for PPC (fedora 10) from rpmfind.net.

It installed correctly, and gathered all the needed dependencies (I have a fedora PPC rpm repository added to my add/remove programs app). When I run it, a tab on the bottom for the program appears with the title (Starting Code::Blocks) or something of the sort, but it then disspears after a couple of minutes and the program never appears. Can anybody figure this out?

Whice fedora repo are you using? I wouldn't expect a fedora 10 repo to work very well for YDL 6.

I'm not at all familiar with that IDE, but you might try starting it from a terminal window instead of the menu and see if it offers any useful error messages.

This is what I got when I tried to execute it in terminal:

codeblocks: error while loading shared libraries: libgio-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I'd first get rid of the version you have installed, probably with:

Code: Select all
yum erase codeblocks

(assuming that's the correct name of the RPM you installed)

And you didn't mention which Fedora repo you're using, but I wouldn't expect any Fedora 7, 8, 9, or 10 repos to work on YDL 6 ... If you're using any Fedora repo other than for Fedora 6 PPC, I'd remove that repo file from /etc/yum.repos.d ...

It looks like cobeblocks is included in the EPEL 5 repo -- you might want to try setting that up instead. You can do that with:
Code: Select all
su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/ppc/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm'

(will ask for your root password)

Then try installing codeblocks using yum:
Code: Select all
yum install codeblocks


And if all goes well, try starting from terminal again ...
