Hello,

I am just curious how fpc 2.2.4 could be build by fpc 2.2.2? fpc 2.2.4 depends on Sysutils/ExeSearch which seems to be introduced with 2.2.4. Easy to fix, but I am wondering how this could happen.

Regards, Bernd.

Compiling FPC always happens by doing a "make all" in the top level directory. This first compiles the rtl, and then the compiler using the newly built rtl. Building the compiler is always only supported when using its accompanying rtl.
