[Lazarus] checksums for downloads
Hi, since I have managed to destroy my fpc and/or lazarus installation and have to install fresh ones, i wondered: Are there chechsums available anywhere for the needed downloads - fpc, fpc sources, lazarus? I would feel mauch better, if so.

Debugging a programm killed some config files, some of my sources and maybe the compiler itself, cannot tell because in the end the machine freezed and shortly rebooted on CTRL-F9. The problem worked at was some confusion in the contruction chain, so I had to stop several times even before a window showed up on the screen. I kept the defect fpc and lazarus dirs, but not the hosed configuration, it is repaired now. Lazarus stumbled across some zero length files, but it should not reboot the computer. I think the damaged file system killed the compiler or the like. -- Marc Santhoff m.santh...@web.de -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
