This is good but I have discovered that Gambas, of any version, is NÒT included in the Ubuntu 18.04 repositories! I think this is very unfortunate as Ubuntu is the base for many other distros.

Could you try again as this might have been sorted earlier this week:-

I haven't upgraded my Lubuntu yet because there are always problems with upgrades. I'll need to test on an old computer first ...when I find time!

I have tried Gambas 3:11 on Ubuntu 18.04 but I needed to use the ppa.

What I meant was that Gambas is not in the Ubuntu 18.04 repositories. It's not there at all!

If you have a look here https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/allp ... mat=txt.gz you can search all packages.

EDIT: - Gambas 3.11.1 is now in the stable ppa for Ubuntu 16.04 & Mint 18.3

I just tried out Solus, which is up and coming. It wasn't there either.

My Lubuntu 17.10 must have updated itself recently to Gambas 3.11.1 ...I hadn't even noticed!

:lol: Sounds like really good advice!

However, is there a ppa or something that I can use for 18.04?
