Comments on: Anjuta is Back and Better Than Ever http://www.j5live.com/2005/05/21/anjuta-is-back-and-better-than-ever/ Where the urethane hits the pavement Mon, 10 Oct 2011 13:34:18 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: DLC http://www.j5live.com/2005/05/21/anjuta-is-back-and-better-than-ever/comment-page-1/#comment-1934 DLC Thu, 26 Jan 2006 19:22:21 +0000 http://www.martianrock.com/?p=65#comment-1934 I just tried an apt-get of anjuta on my Debian system. First off, that wasn't a very good package because it didn't pull in the dependencies like an apt package should. Whatever, I THINK that I got them all resolved. I then tried to use it as I would a MFC wizard created GUI app for the IDE. Lots of warnings and an error I couldn't parse, it said to run the config myself on the command line. Hmm. OK, so this is open source and not everything is perfect, but with all of the praise being heaped on anjuta I would have figured that the package would actually work. I suppose that it does for some things, and it is rough around the edges in others, but in three and a half years I figured that it would have improved a bit more. (2002 was the last time I tried it). I admit it, I'm spoiled by IDEs that work on those "other" operating systems, but I'm a programmer that wants to create applications, I don't want to be a Linux sys admin to do it. I keep hoping, but Linux just isn't there yet. Does anyone know of an IDE that does actually work on (Debian) Linux? I've heard a lot about KDevelope, but if it has the same sort of spotty functionality... Anjuta does look cool, but I'ld like the helpful tools to work on it as well as the more nuts-n-bolts parts.
