Installing QB64PE on Bunsenlabs Linux

[bigriverguy]

Bunsenlabs (https://www.bunsenlabs.org) is a very light weight, Debian based distro that is great for running QB64PE.  To install QB64PE I just had to modify one line of the setup_lnx.sh install script.

I changed line 82 from

elif [ "$DISTRO" == "linuxmint" ] || [ "$DISTRO" == "ubuntu" ] || [ "$DISTRO" == "debian" ] || [ "$DISTRO" == "zorin" ]; then

to

elif [ "$DISTRO" == "linuxmint" ] || [ "$DISTRO" == "ubuntu" ] || [ "$DISTRO" == "debian" ] || [ "$DISTRO" == "zorin" ] || [ "$DISTRO" == "bunsenlabs" ]; then

Code: (Select All)

DISTRO=debian

right below the checking for which distro.  and before the "if" statements.  that is all.  it's the way i do it on any debian-based distribution.

bunsenlabs may be lightweight but it is significantly heavier in ram use than others like slackel.  which has about the same disk footprint.  definitely heavier than antix.  but that one is h3|| with working with the file manager and changing disks and partitions.

i noticed your other thread.  always try to do things through setup_lnx.sh script.  in the future it will require more than one library as dependency.  to be installed to get qb64 phoenix working.
