Installation on Ubuntu 10.10
Install required packages
$ sudo apt-get install codeblocks codeblocks-contrib
For code development, you'll also need some additional packages. Run
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential gdb subversion
$ sudo apt-get install automake autoconf libtool
$ sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev libxmu-dev libxxf86vm-dev
These package are for programming with the wxWidgets GUI toolkit. Code::blocks itself is a pure wxWidgets product.
$ sudo apt-get install libwxbase2.8-dev wx2.8-headers libwxgtk2.8-dev wx-common
Do not forget to install the "c-cpp-reference" manuals. Run this command:
$ sudo aptt-get install c-cpp-reference
