Hi fpc and Lazarus developers.
I just discovered that Lazarus 1.0.x and fpc 2.6 do not install out
of the box on widely used distributions such as RHEL 5.8, CentOs 5.8,
and Suse Enterprise 10.1.
They're the most popular enterprise versions, which should be an
important target for Lazarus and fpc diffusion. Paying customers are
there!
I purchased an HP laptop just a few weeks ago, and the preinstalled
OS was Suse Enterprise 10.1.
As the current policy of enterprise distro's is to provide a longer
life cycle (Red Hat, followed by CentOs now provides a 10 years life
cycle) the problem will stay there for a long time, unless some
simple steps are taken.
I would suggest to check for a version for a distribution that is
closest to SuSE Enterprise. I use Scientific Linux 6.2 and probably
could have used a version for Fedora 12 or 13 since that is what
Redhat Enterprise is based on. You could download the one from my
website. It was compiled for Scientific Linux 6.2 and might work on
SuSE. If not just recompile it, I provide the source package.
Thanks, but I managed to install. I just wanted to point out that those
incompatibilities may frighten or discourage a new user.
