Thanks for the info, Doriano. That's good to know if I ever need to
develop something for Slackware.
Toni, it's not a big deal and I appreciate the help. I'm just playing

awhile since I've programmed in Basic.

After reading some Slackware pkgtool docs (specifically where it says
"pkgtools are unstable with tar > 1.13"), no doubt Doriano is right about
the need of tar-1.13, or at least the need of giving the generated package

Hi again,
I think that there is no real need for that specific version of tar...
thus a workaround to generate packages for Slackware without having to
downgrade the tar utility would be creating a link named "tar-1.13" to
the installed tar binary in order to fool the (silly) gambas check.

Yep, that did the trick. Thanks, Toni.
By the way, I was mistaken about the error given for the Slackware
package. It says "tar 1.13 is missing". I think I recall reading
somewhere that I would have to downgrade the version of tar that comes
on the machine but I'm not going to worry about it. I
Hi there,
I think that rpmbuild is provided by "rpm" package in ubuntu.

Howdy, everyone. I've been using Gambas for about a month but only
joined the list about a week ago. I've really enjoyed playing around
with Gambas.
I used Windows (as well as Linux) and was a VB programmer (among other
languages) for years until I finally couldn't take it anymore and
