Forgot to add that when I try to install packages I get an error: "Cannot install package: <packagename>" (for every package I try) So it actually seems like Lazarus must be set to use fpc 3.2.0 in order to install packages. How is that done (apart from doing it at the first time Lazarus runs and the dialog is shown)? I think I have once (years ago) been told how to show the initial dialog again, but now I cannot find it... So I have the following problem: - I need to use fpc 3.2.0 for all Lazarus related building (build itself with new packages). - But I also want to be able to use Lazarus to build a project using the old stable fpc 3.0.4 - So Lazarus must be told to use 3.2.0 to rebuild itself and build packages, but 3.0.4 to build projects. Right now I think Lazarus can build my projects using fpc 3.0.4 but not itself using fpc 3.2.0. And it must be able to build itself in order to install packages... And I cannot build my projects without these packages installed... -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
