Hi!

I'm newbie in freepascal lists and in Freepascal Unix, and if this question doesn't make sense for this list, please ignore!

I downloaded files fpc.zip and fpcbuild.zip from
ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/snapshot/v23/source/.

Which of them I will use to rebuild Freepascal? I used fpcbuild.zip, but only the sources of freepascal are instaled as 2.3.1, the compiler continue as 2.2.0 . What I have to do to build Freepascal version 2.3.1?

My OS is FreeBSD 6.1, and my freepascal version is 2.2.0, and I want the version 2.3.1 to test TEvent class that don't work in Unix and will be corrected in this version...

I believe that fpc-pascal would be the best choice (this one is for discussions only partly related to FPC).

I believe that "make all install" in the unpacked directory of either of these ZIPs should do it normally (I'm no FreeBSD user, though).
