In that case, I'll butt out!

I'm not sure placing the path to the lib in the fpc.cfg is a solution. I'd make sure that it's in the path (like the /usr/lib directory).

you also need the gdk-devel package (or whatever it is called at debian)

Can you not make symlinks ? ie. libgtk.so -> libgtk12.so ?

No, since then programs linked to more recent versions of gtk are suddenly linked against 1.2

I'm not sure placing the path to the lib in the fpc.cfg is a solution. I'd make sure that it's in the path (like the /usr/lib directory).

Also I'm having kind of a problem with the linklib system.

Problem is that FreeBSD suffixes gtk,gdk,glib with "12" (the version string).

So libgtk12.so , libgtk12.a etc.

Hello:

I've been trying to build lazarus, but when I link I get that cant find gdk lib ( -lgdk ), and it's installed, and there
is path to the libs directory in fpc.cfg

I'm running a debian woody, any idea?

Thanks
Santiago A.

/usr/lib is already added by default
