Getting latest snapshot to run

[crorden]

Hello-

It sounds like the latest builds of FPC 2.2.1 do not support Lazarus.
  http://www.freepascal.org/mantis/view.php?id=10327
The workaround for Windows are snapshots that include FPC 2.2.0
 http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/


However, I can not seem to run or compile the latest snapshots of Lazarus for OSX, even when I load old FPC/FPC-source versions (e.g. the FPC 2.2.0, or the FPC 2.2.1 snapshots from Dec 1, 2007 that work with Lazarus snapshots from the same date).

I would really like to try out Tombo's latest patches for Carbon, but simply can not get the latest snapshots to load with the older versions of FPC. The compiled lazarus in the snapshot does not run (presumably compiled with the broken FPC), and the command (run as root)
 /usr/local/share/lazarus/make clean all
produces these errors

make -C designer clean
make[1]: -iSP: Command not found
make[1]: -iTP: Command not found
make[1]: -iSO: Command not found
make[1]: -iTO: Command not found

I usually use subversion to get the latest source:

I have never used SVN on mac - the web page discusses Ubuntu and Windows options. Can you suggest the best SVN client for Mac? I am not a Mac power user, so something that is pretty simple would be great.

ummm ... I don't remember how I installed mine anymore. Here are some options:

Maybe I used the .dmg, I'm not sure.

Anyway, this is the command line client. It's pretty easy to use once you get used to it. The Lazarus pages contain the exact instructions to use, so it's just a question of going to the correct folder and doing copy+paste of the commands.

Hi Chris,
