Hello lazarus project!

I installed Lazarus and freepascal from Ubuntu's repository. Then I checked out from SVN the latest fpcbuild and built new fpc 2.3.1 and updated the symlink to ppc386.
I have set in Lazarus the path to fpc 2.3.1 compiler and into up-to-date svn's source is set the path.

When I try to make clean all from SVN directory or older installation of Lazarus from Ubuntu's repository, then I get error message:

Fatal: Can't find unit Contnrs used by Masks

What did I forget to set?

Thanks.

See FAQ:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Faq#When_compiling_lazarus_the_compiler_can_not_find_a_unit._e.g.:_gtkint.pp.2817.2C16.29_Fatal:_Can.27t_find_unit_GLIB

You need to adapt the fpc.cfg, so that the new compielr can find your fpc 2.3.1 units.
