Re: [Lazarus] Clean and build as sudo?

2016-02-24 Thread Pedro Albuquerque 
Lazarus (and fpc) was installed from the home page big button on the
right, with default setup:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/Lazarus%20Linux%20i386%
20DEB/Lazarus%201.6/

I'll try installing from the packages you mention and pay some attention
to the installation folders. Thank you,
Pedro.

I always install Lazarus as the user and inside user home where file
permissions are OK:
For example: ~/dev/lazarus/1.6

THen there are no problems when Lazarus needs to rebuild etc.

Probably your installed compiler (Free Pascal) and the Lazarus binaries
do not match.
How did you install Lazarus?

Running and testing self written programs is risky, doing it as root
can do havoc to your system.

We provide newer Ubuntu packages (DEB) for FPC and Lazarus:

You really shouldn't have lazarus installed in such a "shared" location
on your system. A normal user doesn't have write access, and no, I
wouldn't recommend you running Lazarus as root.

Uninstall and maybe use a different installation method so you can
choose the destination directory. I recommend installing Lazarus in
~/devel/lazarus/ for example - where you have write access. Then you
shouldn't have this problem again.

FPC is not so much a problem installed in a shared location, because
normally you don't need to rebuild FPC. But Lazarus IDE is another story
(eg: every time you install new components in the IDE, it requires a
rebuild).

[Lazarus] Clean and build as sudo?

2016-02-23 Thread Pedro Albuquerque 
Hi,

first post here, no coding for the last 25 years, first time with
Lazarus. Forgive me any inconvenience, please.

While building an application, I got this error:

mainwindow.pas(27,22) Error: Cannot find FileUtil used by MainWindow,
incompatible
ppu=/usr/share/lazarus/1.4.4/components/lazutils/lib/i386-linux/fileutil.ppu, 
package LazUtils

After some investigation, I tried Clean and Build, with this error:

Unable to delete file
"/usr/share/lazarus/1.4.4/components/lazutils/lib/i386-linux/LazUtils.compiled".

Should I run Lazarus as sudo? What are the risks?

Thank you in advance,
Pedro.
