Hi all,
Some background: I used Lazarus (on Windows 7) to write a utility for Arduino users (for those interested:
http://www.idogendel.com/en/products/serial-monitor-deluxe). The program works fine, and I want to create a Linux version too. But my only available Linux machine is a BeagleBone Black board with Debian Wheezy. It runs Lazarus 9.31, but doesn't have enough resources to recompile Lazarus with the required additional packages (and I would like to have a more recent build anyway).
So, my question is: considering that I'm a Linux noob, and not familiar with the inner workings of FPC/Lazarus, is there a reasonable way for me to recompile the entire FPC/Lazarus setup from my windows to armhf, and get one big folder I can just copy to the BeagleBone black and have it work there?
I searched this topic for the Beaglebone (and Raspberry Pi for good measure), but all I found was either outdated, too complex for my knowledge level or just didn't work...
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
