Can I suggest the attached patch for fpc.spec? Without it I have problems building on the 64 bit Fedora core 5; with it the i386 and x86_64 can be installed simultaneously and can be used with appropriate make FPC=ppcxxx

1. You forgot the attachment ?
2. There are issues with building the RPM on SuSE. There will be serious changes needed to make it work.

Sorry - not using my mailer - trying again.

The change may be harmless on SuSE, though I can't try it at the moment.

I have now been able to try it on SuSE also. With the changes indicated, the fpc rpm will build and install correctly on 32 and 64 bit Fedora 5 and SuSE 10.1. Without the patch neither 64 bit package will build, so I think this is a useful patch.
The 32 and 64 bit packages will install simultaneously on Fedora core 5 (and seem to pass basic tests). For SuSE I think a fpc-32bit.x86_64.rpm would be required for simultaneous 32 and 64 bit operation, which I think is basically the 32 bit package with the overlapping bits removed, which would indeed require more work.
