I used that page to compare with the buildrequires in the mga2 source rpm for Gambas 3.1.1. There are quite a few differences, but as I already had executed urpmi --buildrequires [...].mga2.rpm the two libraries you mention were indeed already installed. My difficulty is in building revision #4809, or rather, it builds without obvious fault and then makes a mess of the install. My latest result is an apparently faultless install (don't ask how I achieved that, I thought I was repeating a known failing method) but still no obvious evidence that Gambas 3 is really there. There is nothing in the menu, desktop shortcuts to the ide and to a few pre-compiled Gambas 3 projects produce no visible result and executing gambas3 in a console produces the strangest error message: [richard@Bathtub gambas3-sources]$ gambas3 gbr3: no project file in '/usr/bin/gambas3'. I have reached tether's end with this one. I had just decided to update from subversion again when I saw your reply. My intention was to check out a fix for a bug on xinerama screens which Benoît had committed in revision #4808. The Big Plan was to analyse the fix and see if I could derive a patch to apply to MGA2's version 3.1.1, and then submit that to the maintainer so I could go on using stock Mageia packages for Gambas (I know my brother would benefit from the fix too). So, if you have no startling insight into why the built gb.qt4 and gb.xml stuff is not installing (every time) and why the installed gambas3 is babbling on about a Gambas project file being missing, then I think I will dump this revision and try tonight's available offering. I might sound grumpy, but I am actually having fun!
