Hi, can anyone post a simple example for updating Lazarus 0.9.28 to 0.9.30 on Ubuntu 10.10. Thank you. I've tried anything i can think of..i am out of options.
hey mdalacu.
New version of lazarus is not yet in the Ubuntu repositories. So you have 2 options: wait for it, or install it manually.
so you grab all the .deb from here:
fpc-2.4.2-0.i386.deb.tar
and
lazarus-0.9.30-i386.deb.tar
you extract them, then in a terminal go in the fpc folder:
sudo dpkg --force-overwrite --install *.deb
same in the lazarus folder with the terminal.
(it's the hardcore method, but if you install .deb separately, you'll face some inter-dependencies errors).
I did that for a daily snapshot 0.9.31 fpc 2.4.3 under Linux Mint and it works like a charm
