I had a few messages about missing components eg gb.qt.ext. I found these under gambas2 in adept and installed them all so far. However the latest message leaves me puzzled. I try to start gambas2 in a terminal screen and get another error ... ERROR: #2: Cannot load class 'Project': Unable to load class file Now I am lost again. Can you tell me what is missing please. I have searched for 'class' and 'project' in adept but without success.
