    HOWTO: Installing Code::Blocks 10.05 in Lucid and Karmic.

    Hello all.

    I was trying to install Code::Blocks on my Lucid install. The version in the repos is old and I wanted to get the latest version I did some Googling with no success.

    After messing around I was able to get the 10.05 version of Code::Blocks installed.

    Apparently you need at least 2.8.10 of libwxgtk2.8-0. Lucid and Karmic have these packages.

    First install the package:

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install libwxgtk2.8-0
    Then grab the binary of Code::Blocks from the website. These are pre-compiled .deb packages for Code::Blocks.

    32bit
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/code...n-i386.tar.bz2

    64bit
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/code...-amd64.tar.bz2

    Unpack the archive, navigate to the folder where the .deb packages reside, and then from the terminal do the following:
    Code:
    sudo dpkg -i *.deb
    You now have the latest version of Code::Blocks for Lucid or Karmic.

    Hope this helps.
