First off, can I just say.... WOW!!!!

I'm a Lazarus developer actively using it to develop both commercial and Free programs, and just wanted to say a HUGE thankyou to the person who wrote this :

http://lazarus-ccr.sourceforge.net/index.php?wiki=CrossCompilingForWin32UnderLinux

Amazing - my "Component Test Harness" application compiled for win32 just fine after following the wiki (with some minor alterations admittedly, using fpc 2.0.0 things aren't exactly as expected). Running under wine (a big bonus of course - knowing my windows apps run under wine is a glowy-feeling) this means I can actually forgoe a virtual machine running windows and lazarus just to compile and test.

Which brings me onto my next question... I managed to get zeosdbo_rework installed and working under linux, but cross-compiling any app that uses (I'm assuming any part of zeos, but postgres is the main target at the mo anyway) a postgreSQL connection then calls

"linking project1.exe..."

i686-win32-ld blahblah -lpq

and fails. Anyone know how to (really useful in the same style as the aforementioned wikipage) install the postgres, mysql etc. development tools for cross-compiling against?

Thanks in advance
