trouble building/installing from scratch
by John M. Gabriele

Rate this Message:
I'm trying to get FreeRIDE running on Debian Sarge from
scratch. The reason I'm installing from scratch is that the notes here: http://freeride.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?UserDoc seem a bit dated (mentioning somewhat older versions of the various dependencies), and also because those instructions mention that the installer installs Ruby too, and I don't need that (just installed Ruby 1.8.4 myself). Anyhow, I first tried using FOX 1.6 but FXScintilla failed to configure with that, so had to back out and use FOX 1.4. I put my notes up here: http://www.simisen.com/jmg/freeride.html One question I have is, what do I do with with scintilla.a? That is, which package links with it? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

I believe that FreeRIDE needs FXRuby 1.2.x

Removed FOX 1.4.x, installed 1.2.16 (old stable). Now I'll
need to use FXRuby 1.2.6 instead of 1.4.5, but unfortunately that "install.rb" file that comes with FXRuby 1.4.5 doesn't seem to come with an uninstall option. As a brief aside, I think that any software worth its cycles should be easy to uninstall. ---John --- Curt Hibbs <curt.hibbs@...> wrote: > I believe that FreeRIDE needs FXRuby 1.2.x > > Curt > > On 4/17/06, John M.

Ok, I installed FOX 1.2.16 and FXRuby 1.2.6. Now
FreeRIDE starts up, but the icons for the buttons are blank with just the "PNG" written in them. The icons in the left pane of the prefs dialog don't show up either. Am I missing some common GTK+ graphics files? If so, any suggestions as to what Debian package they might be in?

Coming back to your initial message I think it would save you a lot of pain and troubles if you were using the FreeRIDE installer. Sure Ruby 1.8.4 comes with it but you can still point the script runner and the debugger to your interpreter.
