Hi, I tried building the trunk today on Ubuntu Linux 32 bit, using these instructions: http://www.freepascal.org/wiki/index.php/Release_engineering I followed the OS specific section for Linux, got the trunk via svn, made sure there were no libiberty.a, libopcode.a and libbfd.a files on my system, downloaded the latest libgdb and extracted into /fpcbuild/fpcsrc as directed, downloaded doc-pdf.tar.gz and placed it in /fpsbuild (by the way, I think there's a spelling mistake on the above page, it says "docs-pdf.tar.gz" but the file on the FTP is called "doc-pdf.tar.gz" without the "s"), anyway.. I ran: install/makepack everything's OK so far, I then ran: make deb NODOCS=1 This actually goes through ok for quite some time, then fails here: /usr/bin/make -C fpcres exampleinstall make[4]: Entering directory `/home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1/utils/fpcres' make[4]: Nothing to be done for `exampleinstall'. make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1/utils/fpcres' make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1/utils' make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1' bash debian/moveexamples /home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1/debian/tmp/usr/share/doc/fpc-2.1.1 /home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1/debian/tmp/usr/share/doc Moving examples of fcl Moving examples of fv Moving examples of gtk Moving examples of gtk2 Moving examples of zvt Moving examples of gconf Moving examples of paszlib Moving examples of pasjpeg Moving examples of regexpr Moving examples of ncurses Moving examples of hash Moving examples of uuid Moving examples of forms Moving examples of ggi Moving examples of libgd Moving examples of svgalib Moving examples of opengl Moving examples of ibase Moving examples of mysql Moving examples of oracle Moving examples of postgres Moving examples of gdbm Moving examples of odbc Moving examples of gdbint Moving examples of utmp Moving examples of syslog Moving examples of cdrom Moving examples of tcl Moving examples of newt Moving examples of netdb rmdir: /home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1/debian/tmp/usr/share/doc/fpc-2.1.1: Directory not empty make[1]: *** [install-arch-stamp] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1' make: *** [debbuild] Error 2 It appears it is trying to delete a directory, where there are still sub directories inside: "/home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1/debian/tmp/usr/share/doc/fpc-2.1.1" contains 3 folders, at the time it is trying to delete it: "dbus", "libcurl", and "openal", this is why the "rmdir" command fails... I think. Is this a bug in one of the makefiles? _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
