Hi, I've noticed this a few times now and was wondering if it could be fixed or improved on (and if I should report it as a bug or feature request).
In summary, changes to packages get undone while Lazarus is open! Lets use an example to explain. If I have Lazarus open and loaded one of my projects that have required packages list. One of those required packages are fpGUI. I don't actually have the Package open, only the project! Now if I get a svn update for fpGUI while Lazarus is open and the update had changes to the fpGUI changes, Lazarus will overwrite the changes with what's loaded in memory. The Lazarus Editor will detect the changed files and ask if you want to reload it, but when it comes to Packages, Lazarus simply overwrites the package .pas file. This happened again to me today. I did some development work over the weekend at home. I added a new unit to the fpGUI package. Today I got to work, open my project and realized I needed to get a fpGUI update. Got a update, then double clicked in Project Inspector window on one of the "required packages", so I can open the fpGUI package, so I can recompile it. Again, the new unit I added didn't appear in the fpGUI package. Did a 'svn diff' and it shows that the package's .pas file was modified and the new unit was removed!!!! Very frustrating.
