Thank You for help.

I've often seen plenty of reasons later code could not be built. 
Configure scripts look for >= versions of development packages to build 
against. Often if one software package is out of date many are, and that 
leaves you with tool chains that do not meet minimum requirements.

OK


I run Debian stable so I see it all of the time. I don't know why 
developers set such stringent standards, I suspect they don't even 
realize they're doing it half of the time, it works for them, so they 
don't give it another thought. Everyone should be running the 
distribution they are, etc. etc. It could also be laziness, or simple 
incompetence too.

OK
Question:
I use Gimp.
I can start it with the terminal.
But I cannot start it with the gui. Then there is an error.
Is their a way to repeat it?

Question:
I install on one Linux: Audio-Rekorder
Fine.
I install on another Linux: Audio Rekorder. But this time I cannot use 
the program. What shall I do?
