installation issue in RH LINUX 5 svr

[pigletcui]

Hi, guys,

I am new in Linux RedHad development. Tried the codelite install, always failed for some reason.
it says, dependencies wxWidges needed. Even I installed the latested version of wx 2.9.x , and tested wx-config, it says the version correctly. try the rpm (3.0) of code lite, still complain the dependencies needed. any idea ?

Also, which package i shall use to install to RH Linux 5 ? I use fc 86_64 version, though i have no idea what is fc means . Any one can explain which version is for which platform ?

thanks a lot !

David

Hi David,

I use fc 86_64 version, though i have no idea what is fc means

It stands for 'fedora core', which is what each fedora release used to be called.

which package i shall use to install to RH Linux 5

There isn't one. I provide rpm packages for recent fedora and openSUSE versions, but not for other distros. The fedora one had the best chance of working on RH, but I'm not surprised that it doesn't: for an rpm to install, all the libraries that it depends on must be present and compatible, and this seldom true in a different distro or version.

I suggest you build CodeLite from source. It isn't difficult: see the last section of http://codelite.org/LiteEditor/Download.

Regards,

David
