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?
