No, the local repository does not have anything to do with the registered Lazarus version.
Hi master!
If you click (on windows) to the lpk file in the local repo, the "registered" (registered of extension) Lazarus started, and not the current running.
Typically possible (happen me too):
The user want install package from "local repo" to the
current Lazarus installation. Open OPM, click to the Open (local repo), then click to the lpk. Well, the (extension)
registered Lazarus started...
This is illogic for me, but I don't waste my time for it...
Have a nice day!
