Greetings!

I was able to install Gambas 3.19 from the ppa, but it won't run on Ubuntu 22.04, with Mate desktop.

 did you uninstall the old gambas first?

try this

sudo apt purge gambas3*
sudo apt install gambas3*

If that does not work it looks like JIT cannot run.

so try this..

env GB_NO_JIT gambas3

 acctually did you run apt upgrade? i do not see it in your snapshots.

apt update just updates the cache not the programs.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Bruce,

Thankyou - upgrading my system worked.  I usually try to stay away from that as it crashes my system.
