Hello,
fpc-2.0.0 has install/ subdirectory with manual pages. I have just checked out fpc/trunk from svn and there seems to be neither install/ directory nor manual pages. Are there manual pages in the development branch?

Use the fpcbuild repository to build packages.
http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpcbuild/trunk
Note: this is all you need, since it includes svn externals that will also checkout the corresponding sources

That stuff has been moved to the fpcbuild repository (which includes the fpc directory as well).

If you want that, you must check out fpc-build/trunk, fpc/trunk is a sub-repository of fpc-build.
Careful, because fpc-build contains a lot of windows binaries.

As an alternative, you can use just use the svn stuff you already have or unzip (from fpc ftp site) ftp snapshot/v21/source/fpc.zip (updated every night) and use make zipinstall - you then do not need the extra stuff that Jonas mentions. I use this for the v20 and v21 daily snapshots for go32v2 and win32 so I know it works for them!
