Just checked out the Gitblocks repo from github and ran:
./bootstrap
./configure
make
sudo make install
Then, when I try to start C::B, it crashes (output from a terminal is below):
sh@sh:$ codeblocks
Initialize EditColourSet .....
Initialize EditColourSet: done.

I use Lubuntu 15.10 64-bit.
Once I remove the GitBlocks libraries and zip file from plugin and data directories of Codeblocks, it is good again.
