[fpc-devel] Building 2.7.1 on current Raspbian fails
I'm currently trying to build 2.7.1 from SVN on the latest Raspbian (2014-09-09). I've previously built this with either 2.6.0 from the repository, or with Thaddy de Koning's build from March 2014. Currently, neither of these will build 2.7.1 on a Raspberry Pi. So I have also tried with the generic arm-linux release archive (fpc-2.6.4.arm-linux.tar). This installed without error and I can compile projects on the Pi with it. However, when trying to build 2.7.1 (make all) it creates a compiler binary, but fails whilst compiling fpmake. This looks similar to the bug 0024056 which is flagged as resolved. The solution suggested there is to install build-essential, but this is installed by default on Raspbian, so I think there must be something else wrong? Could anyone suggest what I could try now?

This is known. I forgot a bit about my rasp, but I will try to make a new build + build instructions within a week. The warnings can be -partially - ignored though... Tnx Paul, maybe we can coordinate this?

I managed to complete the build with: make all OPT=-dNO_THREADING -Fl/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf -Fl/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.6 I'm not sure I need the -dNO_THREADING, but I left it in from Joost's suggestion. The new build was then installed with: sudo make install PREFIX=/usr sudo make install sourceinstall PREFIX=/usr [Not sure if I need this as well?] Recreated the symlink with: sudo rm -f /usr/bin/ppcarm sudo ln -s /usr/lib/fpc/2.7.1/ppcarm /usr/bin/ppcarm Then created the new config with: sudo /usr/lib/fpc/2.7.1/samplecfg /usr/lib/fpc/2.7.1 /etc This seems to do the trick, I could compile my Pi projects again, although I had to add the two paths to my build commands. What are the files crti.o, crtn.o, crtbegin.o, crtend.o used for by Free Pascal? Is this dependency something new, or has it always been there?

Re: [fpc-devel] Building 2.7.1 on current Raspbian fails
Paul Looks as if you have a working fpc 2.7.1 snapshot for rpi. IAre you planning to make this available on your web site? If not, can you zip pls it, and put it on cloud or some ftp site - I'll then put it on fpc ftp site.
