Dear FPC Developers ,

In those days I am trying to install FPC and Lazarus under Debian 5.0.0 from .deb and .rpm builds ( release and snapshots ) without success .

( I could only install FPC release from its tar ball ) . ( Building Lazarus from make is giving error about missing glib but I could not find glib where nearly ALL of the packages supplied by Debian are installed . )

for dpkg -i fpc... .deb ,
and dpkg -i lazarus... .deb

they are giving error about : failed dependency /bin/sh although /bin/sh is existent .

.deb packages are breaking package installation lists and it is becoming necessary to fix them by Synaptic .

.rpm packages are also giving the above error .

A Installation ReadMe.txt file within download pages may be useful to install released packages . Wiki pages about installation on Debian are not reflecting current situation ( or I did not understand them properly ) .

Thank you very much .

i'd recommend that you compile from source (trunk), as latest debian is eabi and the fpc release uses oabi.

Ik the dependencies in the debian-repositories are not ok, file a bug by Debian.

Was the original post related to ARM processor?

Dear Tomas ,

No . It is a PC with Intel processor ( i386 ) .

In the Debian 5.0.0 package installer , searching fpc or lazarus is not finding any package ,
but in Debian web site package repository there are lazarus and fpc packages . When their pages are visited , they are saying that use Synaptic , but Synaptic is not finding either Lazarus or FPC .

I tried only .deb packages from links obtained from Lazarus web site : Download Lazarus , and .rpm packages from Lazarus snapshot servers .

Jonas Maebe said that Debian 5.0.0 is using EABI , but FPC and Lazarus packages are old ABI .

When sources are tried to be compiled by make clean all , it is given an error about

.../ld : glib is not found .

From GTK web site I have downloaded latest Glib , Gtk , and Pango packages , but
their

~/.configure
make
make install

steps did not solve the above missing glib library problem .

Thank you very much .

Well, I'm afraid that I cannot help you with the problem, but my understanding is that eabi and oabi conventions (mentioned by Henry Vermaak above as far as I could see, not Jonas?) are specifications relevant for ARM platform, not to x86 machines (that's why I asked the question about ARM), and thus not necessarily related to your issue.
