Problems to compile on Ubuntu

[worldpeace-germany]

Hi,

you write Requires 32 bit dev libs. When I try to run the apt-get, for example apt install linux-libc-dev:i386 It tells me it doesn't exist, I can install it without the :i386 in the name, assuming that this is the 64-bit version.

1. Question:
   Can I get the :i386 version somehow installed?

2. Question
   Can I somehow get along with the 64 bit version?

I tried to get along with the 64-bit version hoping that the 32-bit requirement is outdated. When running the install.bat, this part ../../bin/bmk makemods -a tells me that ft2build.h is missing. apt-file search ft2build.h shows me that it is in /usr/include/freetype2/ft2build.h so I guess the bmk command needs to be told to include that path for the includes.

3. Question
   Can that bmk tool somehow being told to include other paths for header files?

Thanks!

This is the home of the original 32 bit BlitzMax.

If you are not targeting 32 bit users please consider modern version of BlitzMax here:

It it is still possible, a 32bit dev environment for Ubuntu may need lib32z1-dev installed.
