Hi, I have downloaded the current version of freebasic, and the error in the subject stops compilation. It seems that window9 is the source. Fedora 35 has webkitgtk-4.0 and keeps removing the obsolete version when it updates. I cannot seem to find a way to get window9 to work. I am using a 6 month old version of window9 and am trying update. Has webkitgtk been updated to a more current version?
Thanks,
John

Hi!
1) Delete all files related to window9 on your computer
2) Download the latest version of window9 (archive window9_linux.tar.gz)
3) Select libwindow9.a version from bin / Lin64 / gtk3 folder for 64-bit system or bin / Lin32 / gtk3 for 32-bit system
4) In the file window9.bi uncomment the line '#define USE_GTK3
5) GTK3 needs libwebkit2gtk-3.0, but your current version is compatible with it. Just create a symlink from your libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so .... to libwebkit2gtk-3.0.so
