Congratulations to the team on the new release.

I confess that I share Chavoux Luyt's fears about updating, especially since I use FPC/Lazarus on three different platforms (and don't really know what I'm doing on two of them :-)

(OK -- all of them.)

Is there a wiki on Updating For Idiots?

Thanks again for all the hard work!

Hi guys

I am still running lazarus v.1.0 RC, basically because I installed a bunch of components (mostly 3D - GLScene, OpenGL, etc) and I can no longer remember which ones came as part of Lazarus and which ones I had to install myself (I am also a bit afraid that updating lazarus and fpc might break something). Is there any way to record all currently installed components (Lazarus inbuilt and self-installed) and automatically re-install them when updating Lazarus? Would it be difficult to write a bash script (or .bat file on windows) that can do this (if it does not already exist in Lazarus)?

In the same vein: any specific components to recommend for 3D game development in Lazarus/free-pascal?

FYI I am running Lazarus on Debian stable (Mepis 11), so I normally use .deb files for installing fpc and lazarus, (but not for components).

Thanks
Chavoux
