Why downgrade? You can install both and switch any time in the IDE.
Thanks !
But how to "install" most easily on Linux (I always use the svn) .
cd your/fpc/svn
make install INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
This is broken on 2.7.1. Mantis 27272.
It's "make install PREFIX=/usr" and it is not broken. Case 27272 is
about INSTALL_BINDIR.
Sorry, I was wrong.
But in general, you don't have to specify any prefix. To install fpc
from source:
cd your/fpc/svn
make clean all install
I know. But over the last few months I've been trying to keep distinct
binary versions: originally because I was trying to look at things like
helpfile content and suspected that some things weren't working properly
unless all binaries were consistent.
Since 2.7.1 this has been broken, and every time I've built a new trunk
I've ended up copying a few dozen files from /usr/local/bin to
/usr/local/bin/fpc.d/2.7.1... even with enforced practice it's been
getting frustrating.
So my apologies once more for the mistaken cross-reference.
