At this point my guess is that the BackTrack5 repositories aren't releasing the auto* utilities as they haven't passed their 'bullet proof' suite yet. I'm build the suite from source and running 'make check' on each to validate it's integrity. I can't wait for the apt-get of the Gambas dependencies to see what is being 'held back'. I know the qt4 may have to be a manual install. I remember something about a 'hold back' when doing my last apt-get update/upgrade. I'm curious, was the Raspberry Pi Gambas3 binary distribution built with a cross compiler (on Intel/AMD Linux) or native under Ubuntu ARM on the Pi? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
