I built the debian package for GnC 3.5 while on Ubuntu 18.04. I since upgraded to 19.04 and found that GnC worked for me. Since then I've been unable to build the debian package for GnC 3.5 on 19,04. I am still working through the issues.
Others have indicated that the debian packages built under 18.04 will not install on 19.04 (though they will install under 18.10 and earlier). I have not tried to compile GnC 3.5 on my box outside of building the debian package. That may be my next step to ensure I can at least compile and install locally. Sorry I have so many other projects also demanding my time. So far, current technology indicates it will take 20-25 years to grow a viable clone (or two). --Steve On 5/2/19 1:17 PM, Dennis Powless wrote: > So, just to be clear I wasn't trying to build GC, just run it and after an > upgraded ubuntu.
