Hello trev,
thank you for testing and the reply. I have not tried the soft link (I will do as soon as possible) but this sounds as the 1st solution to try out: no linker means no chance for a working executable. But why do I get no message about that - here is the output I get (only the last lines - if more is needed I can post of course):
....

it just stops; nothing about linking.
So, thanks for now; I come back after testing with the soft link created.
Ciao,

PS: created the link and I was able to compile (and link and execute) one of my own projects (good). BUT unfortunately, compiling the Lazarus IDE did not work - same as before.
