Hi,

Rebuilding Lazarus (0.9.25, FPC 2.21, latest svn) from the IDE fails: "Them system.ppu was not found in the FPC directories."

The "system.ppu" exists, it is located in the "$(LazDir)\fpc\2.21\untis\arm-wince\rtl\" directory.

Is this a configuraton problem?

Thanks for reading,

- Leslie -

How did you install and configure fpc 2.2.1?

Where is your fpc 2.2.1 located?

Probably the path to the units isn't correct in your fpc.cfg file.

Since I was not sure where to send my message, I have decided to post it here and to bug tracking too. Now I can see that this was a mistake, so I from now I am trying my luck with this problem only here.

How did you install and configure fpc 2.2.1?

1. Snapshot Installer with FPC 2.20 to "Q:\Lazarus\"
2. Snapshot Installer with FPC 2.21 to "Q:\Lazarus_221\"
3. Snapshot Installer with FPC 2.21 ARM-WinCE to "Q:\Lazarus_221\"
4. SVN update did not work on these directories and I was not sure what to delete, so I have downloaded Lazarus SVN to a separate dir, and had the "Q:\Lazarus_221\" dir overwritten with it. From this point SVN checkout is possible to the "Q:\Lazarus_221\" dir.
5. FPC SVN to "Q:\Lazarus_221\fpc\2.2.1\source"
6. I have for batch files to build from source
- ARM-WinCE crosscompiler
- FCL
- LCL
- IdeIntf

I have attached fpc.cfg file.

Thank you for your time!

You are doing a mix of snapshot installation and subversion installation. Unless you know very well what you are doing I would recommend you to use only 1 installation type and follow the wiki instructions for the selected installation type precisely. There are 3 installation types:

* 3.1 Using the stable add-on installer
* 3.2 Using the snapshot add-on installer
* 3.3 Setting up the Windows CE interface manually

The stable add-on is too old, so until 0.9.26 is released I recomend either using the snapshots or setting up the interface manually.

To update the snapshot you need to remove your current snapshot and install a new one.

If you update very frequenty, then set the interface up manually and use subversion, as described here:
