  • Ubuntu Linux?

    From Bruce Axtens@21:1/5 to All on Wed Apr 30 21:14:50 2025
    When trying to install the .deb file I get a variety of errors as below.
    What's the treatment for this malaise?

    -Bruce

    Great! If you could provide me the binaries I can publish them with the
    other ones here (xharbour.org cannot be update anymore):

    How should they be bundled? The buildxbuilder.sh file installs
    everything after build. I can't imagine you just want a copy of /usr/local/bin/hb*
