Because of general missing information, a cry for help in English on this Dutch site:

Update 4/11/2024: Zie ook “Gambas is back! Gambas3 is terug in openSUSE“

Missing Gambas3

Gambas is a great programming language/application to make Linux applications (in my case for the KDE desktop), and it worked very well on openSUSE, I use it since version 1.x.

I consider Gambas(3) as a universal Linux application; I used it on several distributions, and also on Raspberry Pi.

Suddenly, in the summer of 2024, Gambas3 disappeared from openSUSE Tumbleweed. It was so bad that when doing a normal zypper dup on Tumbleweed, the Gambas3 IDE was removed! (runtime was still there).

Gambas also disappeared from the repositories normally used to install Gambas3 on openSUSE Leap (eg obs:/:build.opensuse.org/home:munix). When it was installed already, the software is marked red in Yast Software Management (I locked it now not to lose it).

Last ramaining current version I can find is in the repo home:Henry15ea: home:Henry15ea Community 3.18.1, where only a version for openSUSE Tumbleweed is available, no other versions.

On software.opensuse.org, search gambas3, under “experimental/unsupported”, you can find traces of older version 3.14:
openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP3 3.14.3

I can find nowhere an explanation, or even a description of the problem for the moment.

Right now (aug 2024) the only thing that works for me is to compile Gambas3 from source (from the git repository, eg 3.19.90) on openSUSE Tumbleweed.

There used to be good support with different possibilities to install Gambas in openSUSE since Gambas2, for years and years, so I hope Gambas3 will be back soon in openSUSE…

Update 17/09: gambas3 from source still compiles fine on openSUSE Tumbleweed.

Update 4/11: gambas3 is back in openSUSE 15.6 via the Munix repo: see Gambas is back! Gambas3 is terug in openSUSE
