Since manjaro is based on archlinux, you can try to use the packages for arch. It should be enough to just add this to your /etc/pacman.conf:
# U++ nightly builds
[home_dolik_rce_nightly_Arch_Extra_standard]
SigLevel=Never
Server=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dolik_rce:/nightly/Arch_Extra_standard/$arch/
Then you should be able to install it using
sudo pacman -S theide upp
Note that I have never tested the packages on manjaro, but on arch, they work just fine...

Best regards,

PS: If it doesn't work, there are also PKGBUILDs in AUR.

Hi All,

I can confirm that adding the repo to /etc/pacman.conf works. I have manage to install the latest nightly:
Upp/theIDE version 8931-Arch-x86-64, CodeBase:6996 classes,98]
on the following os:

$ uname -a
Linux laptop1-manjaro 4.1.6-3-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Sep 5 10:57:06 UTC 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ lsb_release -a
LSB Version:	n/a
Distributor ID:	ManjaroLinux
Description:	Manjaro Linux
Release:	15.09-rc2
Codename:	Bellatrix

However, I found one small problem. On compiling my program I get the following error:

"usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkpixbuf.h:37:35: fatal error"

Solution is pretty easy. As discussed in this thread. I just added the path /usr/include/gdk-pixbuf-2.0 into the include list in "Build Methods.." dialog under "Setup" menu in the IDE. Clean and Rebuild. All compiles fine.

Big thanks to Honza for keeping all the linux repos alive and up to date.

Regards,
navi
