Did anyone besides Matt Lewis get wxEuphoria version 0.10 working on Ubuntu? If so, how? Does anyone besides me have a problem getting wxEuphoria version 0.10 to work on Ubuntu? I'm stuck on version 0.9 until this problem is solved.

I'm starting to see whether I can run it at home or not. I'll keep you posted... No success yet but then I haven't spent much time working on it either. -- "Any programming problem can be solved by adding a level of indirection." --anonymous "Any performance problem can be solved by removing a level of indirection." --M.

It looks like Jason was able to get the updated Ubuntu binary to work on his version of Feisty: http://wxeuphoria.sf.net/libwxeu.so.tar.gz Just as a refresher, here's how to install: Download and decompress libwxeu.so. Copy to "/usr/local/lib" (or, "/usr/lib", in which case you should substitute that path below). Run: $ sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib Confirm that it worked: $ ldconfig -p | grep libwxeu libwxeu.so (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libwxeu.so Now you should have the correct binary being loaded. The binary at the above URL links to the Feisty-repository provided wxWidgets libraries. On my system: $ ldd /usr/local/lib/libwxeu.so | grep wx libwx_gtk2u_aui-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_aui-2.8.so.0 (0xb7f1c000) libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.8.so.0 (0xb7e87000) libwx_gtk2u_qa-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_qa-2.8.so.0 (0xb7e66000) libwx_gtk2u_html-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_html-2.8.so.0 (0xb7dc7000) libwx_gtk2u_adv-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_adv-2.8.so.0 (0xb7d05000) libwx_gtk2u_core-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_core-2.8.so.0 (0xb797d000) libwx_baseu_xml-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_baseu_xml-2.8.so.0 (0xb7973000) libwx_baseu_net-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_baseu_net-2.8.so.0 (0xb7944000) libwx_baseu-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_baseu-2.8.so.0 (0xb77e8000)

I've only tested two programs, but I got it up and working. Xubuntu 7.0.4 (under virtualbox) Installed all of the wx2.8 libraries under synaptic Grabbed Matt's Ubuntu-specific (unicode) libwxeu.so and moved it to /usr/lib ran sudo ldconfig. I ran hello_world.exw and controls_demo.exw. So where are we at? -- "Any programming problem can be solved by adding a level of indirection." --anonymous "Any performance problem can be solved by removing a level of indirection." --M.

It works!!! Now is there any chance of automating the process with apt (Advanced Packaging Tool)?

Sure, as soon as someone who knows how to package it helps me out. :) I've had a brief look at some howtos on making a .deb package, and it doesn't seem exactly trivial to me. While I'm not sure if we could get it into the repository, we could at least provide a proper package that would handle dependencies and installation. Matt

Question: would it be just as easy to supply an installation script? If I did a debian package then I would want to do one for Euphoria as well. There already is one in the archives but it's for 2.5. I could update it. -- "Any programming problem can be solved by adding a level of indirection." --anonymous "Any performance problem can be solved by removing a level of indirection." --M.

An installation script probably would be satisfactory. At least for now. The idea is for people who download wxEuphoria-based programs from freshmeat can make them work without too much techy stuff. Some day when both Euphoria and wxEuphoria are sufficiently popular, there will be a little icon in Ubuntu and a message saying that there are some updates. Then when you click on the icon, the update installer will pop up and show the update files. Among the update files will be Euphoria and wxEuphoria. Then you will click on 'install' and it will download them and install them. All it will require will be 2 mouse clicks and 1 password and 1 mouse click.
