This comment will remain, but you are advised to go to post #76 in this same thread on the matter.
>sigh< To build QB64PE v3.5 on Gecko Linux (based on OpenSuSE "Leap") I had to exclude the "libqb_http" stuff.
First I tried to obtain the required libraries. There is no such thing as "libcurl4-devel" according to YaST and "zypper", although the regular library is there. There had been the "libcurl-devel". Tried to install "openssl-devel", version 1 and version 3, no success. Modified the Makefile to exclude HTTP(S) functionality, didn't work. Renamed "httpstub.cpp" to "http.cpp" while backing up the real source code component, more frustration. Finally I edited "libqb.cpp" and simply commented out all calls to whatever "libqb_http" functions.
It's "$UNSTABLE", right? I don't want to have to build a QB64 program on another Linux system, then bring that program over to this particular distro or any other that isn't like Arch or Debian, and it refuses to run because of one library.
This would have to be tested in "Tumbleweed", the rolling-release wing of OpenSuSE.
This is just for information. I don't expect every single Linux distro supported.
