Hi Mark,
you should use -s option
for compilation.
This will generate a ppas.sh script
that contains the call to the linker.
Maybe removing this command line option will be enough
to fix linking.
I hope you will be able to generate a recent
Free Pascal Complier on your machine!
Already worked some of that out, by reference to the notes I did on
building MIPS etc. natively.
I've built a fixed 2.6.4 32-bit compiler to make sure that the initial
installation is runnable, and a full build of 2.7.1 appears to have got
over the initial "hump". This is going to take a while since the machine
doesn't have much RAM, I want to do as much testing as possible before I
open it up in case anything goes wrong.
Assuming this works, I hope to try Lazarus. I don't know whether I've
got the time to progress to Leopard/10.5 and the 64-bit compiler, but
I'd imagine that that's somewhat nearer what other people are testing
regularly. Considering other platforms, that leaves 68K on Debian that I
was hoping to test but probably won't have time to, and an AMD Athlon
which Lazarus doesn't seem to like... again, I assume that somebody's
picked any problems up already on such a popular platform.
If FPC's -k option can add linker options, wouldn't an option to remove
them be useful?
I'll probably be back with more problems...
