Hi,
I'm using the 64bit version of Ubuntu 6.06. Is it possible to use geany under it (without 32 emulation or stuff like that)?
cheers, Dagur
Hey,
Yes... That's possible. I compiled Geany on an AMD64 machine with pure 64bit environment. At the moment, Enrico can't provide any precompiled 64bit packages, because he has no access to such hardware. (Hope that's correct, Enrico ^^)
So you will have to compile Geany yourself...
Fine regards, Christoph Berg

Christoph was right, I have no access to any amd64 hardware. But since Geany is in Debian Unstable, there is also a deb for amd64 available. I'm not completely sure if it works on Ubuntu 6.06 but you can try it.
The deb is available here: http://ftp.is.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/geany/geany_0.7.1-1_amd64.deb or http://packages.debian.org/unstable/devel/geany

Run fine on amd64 gentoo here.
I think you can always use package for building deb from projects with "configure". I don't remember what was it name thus.

I have submitted Geany to Ubuntu REVU for to be included with next Ubuntu "edgy" release sometime ago. When it gets accepted there should be A64 packages available for it aswell. I dont have access to A64 hardware. So i can only provide 32bit packages on my repository.

At least I can confirm that Geany can work with Ubuntu 6.06, I use the sources (kind of weekly snapshot).

For general info, I was able to compile Geany (0.7.1) successfully from tarball on a 64-bit arch (Intel Xeon running RH Enterprise Linux 4). As I recall, the only tweaking required was that I had to point the linker explicitly to /usr/lib64 with:
LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath /usr/lib64
as it would otherwise search for some system libs (can't recall which...) in /usr/lib and reject them as incompatible.

This is strange, does this mean that in order to compile almost *any* software you need to specify this ldflag by hand?
I can't belive 64-bit RH is so broken. (/usr/lib is just symlink to /usr/lib64 here on gentoo)

No.

It's not.

My RH maintains 64-bit libs in /usr/lib64 and 32-bit libs in /usr/lib, so you have the option to compile code as 64-bit or 32-bit (maybe this is a Xeon thing). Most configure scripts seem to identify the architecture as x86_64 and resolve the correct library path accordingly... not sure why geany's didn't (maybe I should have enabled the-force :)
I have occasionally had similar issues with other tarballs but am an autoconf/automake know-nothing so have no idea why.

I guess this won't solve the problem ;-). But perhaps it makes it less worse.

I'd like to help you, but I don't know where to start. If you come across a tarball with a working configure, please send me its configure.in or configure.ac.
Thanks, Enrico
