Codelite crashes after clicking a new workspace or creating a new project in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, and while I'm not entirely new to Linux, I'm fairly new to using Codelite on Linux. I have a codename and it works on Windows without any problem. However, installing it on an Ubuntu install seems to have gone somewhere. Because, whenever I start Codelite on Ubuntu, it starts up fine (apparently), and then if I try to create a new workspace or even a new project, it just closes with no warnings or messages at all. I have searched the internet for this problem, but nobody seems to have such a problem. So either I'm doing something mostly stupid, or I'm not doing very well with Ubuntu. Anyway, I will be very grateful if someone can guide me and put me straight. Thanks in advance.

That's not you. Its an Ubuntu bug. The codecite provided by Ubuntu is very old (2.8). Current version 6.1.1

To fix the problem:



  • Remove CodeLite sudo aptitude purge codelite codelite-plugins

  • Install the new CodeLite provided by the CodeLite team from our repository

Please note that we filed an Ubuntu bug to remove this broken package ... but nothing was done to fix it.

This worked for me:

  • Download the .deb file from here .

  • Run sudo dpkg -i codelite-x.y.z.deb

    (install the package)

  • Run sudo apt-get install -f

    (this fixes all dependency issues)



Thanks to xuancong84, the instruction is taken from this problem .
