Hello Graeme. Thank you to your answer but could you explain me why, if using lib**-dev **is** the way to do, why fpc does it only for third library. Why, for example for libc.so.6 (needed to compile fpc himself), fpc does not use libc-dev and the libc.so created ? I am very sorry but if

Hello Martin You know that I never give up. A concrete example. A Linux/FreeBSD fpc release was compiled using the pascal headers for libX11.so.6 and using symlink libX11.so >> libX11.so.6.0.8. This release was installed on a system (with libX11-dev too to make it work). If, some time later,

Hello Martin. May I ask you why MSE and fpGUI use the buggy code of fpc/packages/x11 ? At the end it is only Pascal headers for the libX11.so library, mse could have his own x11 code. Fre;D
