I'm also waiting with bated breath for the 64-bit release of Free Pascal and Lazarus. :D Catalina has messed up a lot of things for me, including MacPorts (no Catalina version available as of this writing).As much as I know, MacPorts is already partly on Catalina and should be completely soon. I haven't updated so far, but fpc 64bit should be fine. If not, report to me and I will try to take care of it. I am testing lazarus from the fixes branch of 2.0. The cocoa 64bit based lazarus can be compiled. The MacPorts port is submitted, but under review, which may take some time.
Isn't it a matter of simply turning off gatekeeper?
Isn't it a matter of simply turning off gatekeeper?
Unfortunately no... The issue is that FreePascal installer tries to install FreePascal components in the OS partition that is a read-only one with macOS Catalina...
FreePascal installer must be modified accordingly.
I recall https://github.com/LongDirtyAnimAlf/fpcupdeluxe/releases (https://github.com/LongDirtyAnimAlf/fpcupdeluxe/releases) installs everything into subfolders to the installation (and configures project file accordingly) ... Maybe a solution?
Albeit in Lazarus I have needed to add this in "project options" - "custom options" ... (I do not know if it is still necessary when using FPCUpDeluxe)
Note: I am not on Catalina yet, so not 100% sure if the above still works

Well, I am on Catalina now. When will the FP Installer work on Catalina?
I'd also be interested in an update?
Have you tried to install the fpc-3.0.4a.intel-macosx.dmg ?That's what helped me on MacOS MajaveThe title of this subject should be changed to [SOLVED].
Try renaming the ~/.lazarus folder then restart Lazarus.I tried, I even reinstalled Lazarus, but the compiler raises the same error. :(
... The installation of fpc-src-3.0.4-laz.pkg in /usr/local/share/fpcsrc/3.0.4. was fine, but that of fpc-3.0.4-macos-x86_64-laz.pkg in /usr/local/lib/fpc/3.0.4 raised an error at the end, ...
No, because the installer gives no hint, and if I install the package withit doesn't work, and it gives just a generic message of error.

... The error it raises should be Failed to execute "ppcx64".
I've ppcx64 in /lib/fpc/3.0.4/ppcx64 and I've added the link in /usr/local/bin/ppcx64, but this doesn't fix the problem.

Good point. :) No, I cannot execute ppcx64 from any directory. How can I insert its path in macOS default directories so that I can run it from everywhere?

OK, I added the path with nano /etc/paths, and even env shows it. Now I can run ppcx64 from anywhere The error on fpcmake is the same, while trying to recompile Lazarus, with or wihthout sudo, usingCode: [Select]massimo@Mac-mini Lazarus % make LCL_PLATFORM=cocoa CPU_TARGET=x86_64 bigide

A hint in the message windows says that the compiler cannot find the .ppu files of the unites, but those files are properly installed in /usr/local/lib/fpc/3.0.4/units/x86_64-darwinand the path of the fpc source is correctely set as/usr/local/lib/fpc/3.0.4
Of course I installed the same packages, many times, but when I start Lazarus the compiler raises the error
This mailing list post may help you (fixed version of the macOS 64bit fpc installer):Actually this version of fps works smoothly on my macOS Catalina, and Lazarus as well! Thanks to everybody for your great support!
