Re: [Lazarus] Release preparations

2009-08-30 Thread CubicDesign
I really hope that the Import Delphi project has been fixed also. 
Else, Lazarus is not of much use for many many people.
Yesterday, it consecutively crash and burn every time I tried to import 
a tiny Delphi project. Once it even restarted the almighty Ubuntu box.

Hi,

We have started preparations for the upcoming Lazarus 0.9.28 release. 
svn trunk has been branched to a fixes_0_9_28 branch, which be used 
to create the release from. This branch has currently version 0.9.27. 
Snapshots form this branch can be downloaded from 
http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/ and can be considered release 
candidates. Last night's snapshot with fpc 2.2.4 has been added to 
the lazarus-testing Ubuntu repository too, for installation 
instructions see
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Getting_Lazarus#Getting_Lazarus_from_our_Ubuntu_repository 



Of course you all have been following Lazarus development closely and 
checked your applications regular with svn trunk or the 0.9.27 
snapshots, but this is your last chance to do so before we create the 
release. Depending on the amount of feedback we get we aim to tag 
0.9.28 next week.



In the last week a dozen bug fixes have been merged to the 
fixes_0_9_28 branch to be included in the 0.9.28. Snapshots have been 
created and I have updated the lazarus-testing Ubuntu repository.


Current 0.9.27 snapshots can be considered a 0.9.28RC2.

If you find regression (things that stopped working), you can report 
your findings here on the mailing list and (preferably) in the bug 
tracker, see for example http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=14400

Does that mean, that not one most recent version exists? Why are 
there multiple working versions?


Agree with this. Can anybody provide a hint (for those that are too lazy 
to Google which version should be actually used), which is the link to 
the recommended downloadable version?

[Lazarus] Lazarus was installed - So what?

2009-10-07 Thread CubicDesign

Hi.

I just upgraded from Lazarus .26 to .28 (Ubuntu). However, no shortcut 
was created on my desktop or in my Start menu?

How can I run Lazarus?

There are about 50MB in /lib/lazarus folder, but I don't know which file 
is the actual program to run.

1. No. I checked that menu also. There is only the Python icon.

2. I have used the DEB packages to install it (GDebi). I had no error 
messages while installing the lazarus-src_0.9.28-0_all.deb packege but 
the lazarus-ide_0.9.28-0_i386.deb package said:

Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: fp-compiler (= 2.2.4-3)

3. That is the name of the file that I should run? I can do a search for it.

I have found only the source code of the IDE: 
/usr/lib/lazarus/0.9.28/ide/startlazarus.lpr and lpi

It looks it isn't compiled Right?
I supposed that the DEB packaging will do all the job for me. Do I have 
to compile it or something?

Did you force installation or not?
I have not even the slightest clue. I just open the package in GBebi and 
pressed the Install button. For two out of four DEB files it worked.
There is any easy to use installer (like the Setup files on Windows) for 
Lazarus?

Thanks Andrew.

I had the old version. I just uninstalled. I wanted to upgrade to the 
new version.


 I can share my Subversion commands and you can have the latest and 
greatest that way


Thanks but I am interested in using the stable version. I think that the 
night builds may be unstable sometimes. If you think otherwise, please 
share.

From a terminal type (command prompt)

If you install Lazarus from Ubuntu's repository it will be older but
at least you can get started.

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev libgtk1.2-dev libgdk-pixbuf-dev
libgpmg1-dev fakeroot libncurses5-dev
sudo apt-get install fpc
sudo apt-get install lazarus

If you want... I can share my Subversion commands and you can have the
latest and greatest that way... But you gotta know your way around the
terminal a bit.

This only works, if actually installed the Lazarus executables, which he did
not (probably), because he did not update fpc.

Maybe you need to fix the dependencies as I told earlier.

Sorry :)

I just looked over your two emails but you didn't said nothing about 
dependencies or how to fix this?

Where can I find the tool that fixes this?

Re: [Lazarus] new critical bug discovered in the latest version of Lazarus

2009-10-07 Thread CubicDesign
The problem is that while trying to install the latest version of 
fp-units-rtl, it failed with the message: fp-units-gtk2

So Lazarus cannot be installed because of this.

It seems that this version is really flawed. While trying to install

That one seems different, it depends of abi-2.2, but it should be 
abi-2.2.2.

The error for this package is:
Error: Breaks exisiting package 'fp-units-gtk2' dependency

The lazarus-ide package depends on:

http://packages.debian.org/sid/fpc-abi-2.2.4
which is provided by

I see no problem.

I give up. I will just return my virtual machine to a previous point

The amount of time spent to install the 0.9.26 version is started to be 
hilarious high.

I will start to produce code instead of fooling around.
