Do people think we should try to package LazReport into Lazarus at some

Someone else also mentioned that idea a while back. I think that would
be a good idea and a step forward in the right direction. Unless
other reporting tools are available and deem it unfair. (Oh such
business thinking!) :-)
My 2ct:
I think it's quite important for Lazarus in the long term to have
important basic functionality built-it automatically, or else the
situation will get as worse at it is the case with Delphi. (Each time I
have to reinstall Delphi it takes 2 hours until all components are
installed again. BTW, having some kind of package manager similar to the
Linux ones would be _extremely_ cool and handy.)
On Lazarus actually I have to install Lazarus itself, then
lclextensions, multilog, virtualtreeview, lNet, PowerPDF, and to enable
the Firebird support... This is not a very convenient solution.
At some time in the future, a discussion about which components to
include by default will be necessary. It should be possible to create
powerful applications by just installing Lazarus itself.
Regards,
Sebastian
(btw, something totally different: I noticed that the FCL source files
are missing in recent Lazarus Win32 installers. Is this a known issue
somebody cares about already?)
