Hi,
This I my first post…
I had never Heard of QB64 before until it was mentioned on amiga-news.de that there was a new version "Phoenix", so…
I compiled it on Mac Catalina and it works fine.
Now I was wondering can I install it on Raspberry OS (64 bit arm Bookworm?)…
If so how?
Do I Compile QB64-PE with ./setup_lnx.sh like any other Linux?
If so… what exactly do I type in to Compile ./setup_lnx.sh?
Is it Run ?
Thank, I don't usually compile things.

try to install as you would on any Linux, if there are problems then please post them here
I just downloaded the git repo and after extracting the archive and issuing the command ./setup_lnx.sh it built and ran without any issues
I had already installed a previous version so I forgot the details whether there were any libraries that needed to be installed or not

Hi,
I did what the README said for Linux, I simply entered…
./setup_lnx.sh
Unfortunately (hours later)…
g++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus
compilation terminated.
make: *** [Makefile:407: internal/c/qbx.o] Error 1
It appears that the qb64pe executable file was not created, this is usually an indication of a compile failure (You probably saw lots of error messages pop up on the screen)
Usually these are due to missing packages needed for compilation. If you're not running a distro supported by this compiler, please note you will need to install the packages listed above.
If you need help, please feel free to post on the QB64 Phoenix Edition Forums detailing what happened and what distro you are using.
Also, please tell them the exact contents of this next line:
DISTRO: debian
Thank you for using the QB64-PE installer.
…now this is probably because of my lousy internet connection and the fact that I’ve only got a Raspberry Pi 3b available at the moment or because the internet connection broke a couple of times and I had to start again.
Now if I’m doing it correctly (compiling), is it worth trying some more (perhaps on a day when the internet connection is a little stronger) or should I just wait until I can try it on a newer model Raspberry Pi or is there actually and error in the installer for Linux debian arm 64?
Thanks.

The RPi3b has only 1 GB of RAM and some of it is also used by the Broadcom GPU. I think gcc may have run out of memory compiling QB64-PE.
