I just downloaded the compressed files from Codeblocks website but there are so many .deb files.

So which one should I install? Do I have to remove currently installed Codeblocks 16.01 before performing installation? If anyone describes the process in a bit detail, it'll be really helpful. I am a newbie.

* Here are the steps in the videos *

Step 1:

First install pre-processor, compiler, and wrapper by running following command

sudo apt-get install gpp gcc g++

Step 2:

Download Code::Blocks binary "codeblocks_17.12-1_amd64_stable.tar.xz" from official CodeBlocks website.

Step 3:

Extract downloaded archive with

tar -xf codeblocks_17.12-1_amd64_stable.tar.xz

Then install extracted deb-packages with

sudo dpkg -i *17.12*.deb

And finally, install missed dependencies with 

sudo apt-get install -f

Codeblocks_17.12_1 works nice on a clean install of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and spent a day coding and not seen any of the IDE`s usual GUI problems previously experienced when using Codeblocks v16.01 on Ubuntu 17.10+ ;)

Extra Dependencies Required (+current codeblocks-contrib);-

sudo apt-get install libwxbase3.0 cccc cppcheck cscope hunspell valgrind python3-pygments wx3.0

Then Codeblocks_17.12_1 and plugins install without problems.

Thanks Codeblocks coders and contributors, I have been using this IDE for many years.
