[SOLVED] Problem installing with FPCUpDeLuxe

[dsiders]

I don't think Don Siders is the author of fpcupdeluxe.
Anyway, Mattias added a package link (lpl) file in r62802 which apparently fixed things. I had already forgotten those link files.

I am not. That would be another Don on the forums, I believe.

Will there be an announcement when this is fixed?

Please ask FPCUpDeLuxe developers. Lazarus build system should be OK now after the lpl file was added.
This error looks suspicious: "User defined: only cpu i386 is supported".

BTW, if you only want to latest Lazarus, you don't need FPCUpDeLuxe. Just get Lazarus trunk sources (svn co ...) and run "make".

Where is that  Make.
I see several Makefile, but so far I have not found Make.
What svn is best to use ?

Thanks all for the feedback.

I have released a new version of fpcupdeluxe.
Among many improvements and limited regressions (I hope), it will now log the revisions that are installed. This makes it easy to switch back.
Just put the desired revision in the suitable editbox inside Setup+.

Enjoy.

Either Lazarus trunk or fixes_2_0 branch as you prefer. See:
 https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Getting_Lazarus
MacOS is a Unix. "make" should be there.
For some platforms like Windows FPC provides the "make" executable.

Hmmmm ... some minor problems with release 1.6.8e.
So, a new one.

My question was more as to what SVN software is best to use.  As you can see I am not familiar with SVN

[howardpc]

For Windows you could use TortoiseSVN, and for Mac, SnailSVN

For the moment anyway, Xcode's command line tools come with a command line version of svn.

Code: [Select]

$ which svn
/usr/bin/svn

To grab trunk:

Code: [Select]

svn checkout https://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/trunk [your_local_source_dir]

To compile I use a script:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
svn cleanup --remove-unversioned
make distclean all LCL_PLATFORM=cocoa CPU_TARGET=x86_64 bigide

To update trunk, run in your local source dir:

Code: [Select]

svn update

Thank you trev,  I am saving that for later use
