Updating plugins

Post by Quinze »

When I try to install the latest version of Codelite (2.10.0.4778 for Ubuntu), it tells me that codelite-plugins v 2.8.0.4537-dfsg-1 is present and refuses to go any further.

What do I have to do to update the plugins?

Hi,
What do I have to do to update the plugins?
You don't; you remove the codelite-plugins package.

For some reason the official ubuntu CodeLite isn't a single package, it's been split into two: the main bit and the plugins. The binaries that we produce ourselves are all-in-one. So you don't need the old plugins, and they might conflict with the new ones.

Regards,

David

Thank you. I did as you suggested and I've now upgraded to 2.10.0.4778.

However, since the upgrade Run (Ctrl F5) doesn't work. I can run a built program outside the IDE and I can also run it with the debugger. But using Run results in an immediate -1 return code.

What output do you get in the Output View?
Oh, and do you have 'xterm' installed?

Output:

Current working directory: /home/john/.codelite/workspaces/gramophone/Gramophone/Release
Running program: /usr/lib/codelite/codelite_xterm './Gramophone ' '/bin/sh -f /usr/bin/codelite_exec ./Gramophone '
Program exited with return code: -1

I don't seem to have codelite_xterm. Where do I get it?

OK, I've located a copy of the file on the web and Run now works.

Thanks for all your help.
