Following instructions provided on wiki, I installed FPC executing "svn checkout http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/trunk fpc". Based again on same instructions I used to change into fpc folder and execute command "svn update fpc" every day in order to check for updates.
Since today I did not get any updates for fpc, I did almost every day for Lazarus. svn command just reported current revision number. Because it seemed strange to me, today I checked same command without last part, as "svn update" and finally received several files related to fpc. Issues: 1. Do you think we should change instructions on wiki? I coul do it. 2. After updating fpc, should we run again "make install" or any other command or just updating sources is OK? Anyway, I tried "make install" again but got error messages, most of them were: "make: ppc386: command not found" (if it is necessary, I can provide full output). I think this inormation should be added to wiki. - OS is Linux, Knoppel - Current fpc revision is 2986 - Wiki instructions: "Development snapshots How to do this? (You need to have SVN installed, of course. Look here (http://subversion.tigris.org/) for instructions on how to do that.) Change Directory (cd) to the parent directory of your development area, eg []$ cd /home/username/FreePascal To retrieve the full source repository, all publicly available modules, type []$ svn checkout http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/trunk fpc Normally, you should perform this step just once. To update the sources which were downloaded (checkout) above []$svn update fpc" Regards, Panagiotis _________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
