Can you verify that 'fpc' is in /usr/bin?
It is not, nor is a file named fpc anywhere else, as 'find' shows: [root@gerencia warren]# find / -name fpc find: /mnt/floppy: Input/output error find: /mnt/cdrom: Input/output error /usr/lib/fpc (The last entry being a directory, not a file. fpc isn't in there, either.) Nor does the rpm package I installed contain a file named fpc that is supposed to go to /usr/bin/: [root@gerencia warren]# rpm -ql fpc-1.0.4-2mdk | grep /bin/ /usr/bin/bin2obj /usr/bin/data2inc /usr/bin/delp /usr/bin/fd2pascal /usr/bin/fpcmake /usr/bin/fprcp /usr/bin/h2pas /usr/bin/plex /usr/bin/postw32 /usr/bin/ppdep /usr/bin/ppudump /usr/bin/ppufiles /usr/bin/ppumove /usr/bin/ptop /usr/bin/pyacc /usr/bin/rstconv > There are probably three possibilities: > > /usr/bin not in PATH - but I find that highly unlikely... /usr/bin/ is in my path: [warren@gerencia warren]$ env (snip) PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:...(snip) > It could be that the installation directory is > not in your path, or the install is broken in some respect (i.e., by > not placing the compiler binary or at least a link to it in /usr/bin). That's what I'm wondering. How is this rpm supposed to give me a working compiler if it doesn't contain a file named fpc? > you installed the source rpm by mistake, so you'd have to compile it, > but that doesn't seem that likely. Did the filename end in src.rpm? No, it is fpc-1.0.4-2mdk.i586.rpm, from LM 8.1 CD3. > At any rate, typing 'rehash' at the command prompt (or exit & relogin) > might actually work. It can't hurt. No change after exit and relogin. Warren
