The starting compiler is any official FPC 2.6.4 compiler that can be
downloaded from our website. With any of those compilers, you can build
both cross and native trunk compiler for any of the targets supported
only by trunk. That's how all targets are bootstrapped.
Not for ARMV6 EABIHF
That's why I said you have to cross-compile. E.g.:
* download FPC 2.6.4 of Linux/i386
And for those who are wondering why Jonas is making such a big point out
of this: http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=26930 (Just a bug report
from today)
We get this kind of bugs, questions and comments all the time. All from
people who try to build trunk-with-trunk, while they do not know what
they are doing.
That must stop. So, please, please, *never* say you can/have to build
fpc-trunk with fpc-trunk. (Unless it's the same revision)
Joost.
This thread has been *very* educational so thanks to all who
participated. I've spent a bit of time during the past 7 years trying
to figure out how to simplify things by avoiding cross-compiling.
I'll start another thread about this but I think there is a way to
simplify cross-compiling. Levinux is a small Qemu download for x86 PC
(Windows, OS X, Linux) that provides a small Linux VM. I'd like to see
something similar but with Debian and all the files and tools needed to
cross-compile FPC.
Please hold your comments until there is a new thread (feel free to
start that). Thanks!
