Hi everyone, There seems to be a problem on i386-linux on the trunk in that I can't run the test suite.  After successfully building the compiler, I then go to the "tests" subdirectory and run "make clean full TEST_OPT=~/Documents/fpc-opts/compiler/ppc386" and get the following error: Compiling redir.pp redir.pp(119,3) Fatal: Can't find unit process used by Redir Notably this doesn't occur under i386-win32. Gareth aka. Kit

Hi Gareth, your email is not detailed enough so that we can really help you. Using a compiler: TEST_OPT=~/Documents/fpc-opts/compiler/ppc386 as option is certainly not working... But your error is probably due to an installation issue. The dotest program will be compiled using your default Free Pascal installation, and it is highly likely that your release compiler is not correctly set up. Are you able to use your release compiler? If you use a regular user installation, do you have a $HOME/.fpc.cfg present that will allow the compiler to find the installed units? Could you send a full log of the failing make command?

Hi Pierre, Here attached is the log of me running 'make' for the test suite.  It doesn't matter how far back I go in the commit history or what compiler options I specify - it falls over at the same point.

Could you please add OPT="-vwnihut" to the make call? It probably has a problem with the process unit from release installation... But I would like to confirm that this is indeed the issue.

Hi Pierre, Here's the full log (as a ZIP since the raw text file is over 100kB in size). I did do a search of "process.*" in the "/usr/lib/fpc/3.2.2" directory and only found "process.ppu", "process.o" and "process.rsj" in the "units/i386-linux/fcl-process" subdirectory - no source file.  Do I need to manually add "/usr/lib/fpc/3.2.2/units/i386-linux/fcl-process" as a unit directory?

I didn't get the log either, but yes, as Pierre already pointed out, you should have something like "-Fu/usr/lib/fpc/3.2.2/units/i386-linux/*" in your fpc.cfg (either the system-wide one, or the local one in your home directory), and then it should work for you.
