Fpcupdeluxe

Arbitrary. Not the newest libs. Not the oldest. Just to get things running for most system.
Others libs are there as a service.
And ideas about a better libs-choice are welcome.

Just found this 'defmods.ini' file, produced by FPCUpDeluxe. Is there a way of adding/removing modules to this file without manually doing so in a text editor?

As far as i know defmods.ini is the possibility to let fpcupdeluxe install all the packages you want to have at first glance up to a full featured Lazarus UI.
Another way of removing/addinng modules to the file does not seem to exist.

Confirmed. Will look into this issue.
(due to recent changes in TProcess I guess)

You're awesome. Thank you in advance!

This commit breaks some things on Windows.

It's a fairly new change (couple of hours). As stated, this change will be tested and corrected if necessary.
So, stay tuned.

 hi,

  are you sure that the issue is related to commit [e429be38e849][https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/commit/e429be38e8494ae7f18c1a2fbb0f9cc90f990044]?

  The commit is supposed to only really change the wince version, not the win32, nor the win64...

I did not investigate very deep, but 6ef3aef5 (the commit before) builds fine.

[pierre_muller]

It was indeed my commit that revealed a problem in packages/fpmkunit/Makefile.fpc

Hopefully fixed in commit 848c3a252e https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/commit/848c3a252e4be4e0e2b09afdec12356b355ab475

Sorry for this,

Pierre

Everything works fine now. You guys are great. Thank you very much for your efforts.

Hello @DonAlfredo.
concerning this issue: https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/issues/40263#note_1718434678
Is there any way to merge with FPC 3.2 fixes ?
Thank you.

[DonAlfredo]

@BSaidus
The fix went into FPC trunk/main. Would be good to get it into fixes 3.2 too indeed.
Will give it another try.

Yes I received a mail about that, but I think it is merged only to trunk, Not in 3.2 fixes.

Do you see the "cherry picked" on top? See also https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/commits/fixes_3_2 for a list of commits to 3.2.x
