atsynedit.pas(5691,1) Error: resource compiler "windres" not found,
switching to external mode

I tried to change {$r nnn.res} to {$r nnn.rc} and got this. How to fix it?

Laz 1.9 trunk, FPC 3.0.2, Linux x64

You must install the necessary binutils for this.

On a debian based system:

sudo apt-get install mingw-w64
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-windres /usr/bin/windres

Should do the trick.

Michael.
