The 2.6.4 release is able to successfully compile
a 2.7.1 trunk compiler.
:) Thanks for confirming.
Several files are missing in this source release:
The source package which is made up of fpc_2.6.4+dfsg-4+rpi1.dsc ,
fpc_2.6.4+dfsg-4+rpi1.debian.tar.xz and fpc_2.6.4+dfsg.orig.tar.gz does
contain the files you mention. To extract it you use dpkg-source -x on
the dsc file. This is the source used to build the deb files.
The "binary" package fpc-source exists primerally for the benefit of
lazarus users, it appears to contain more than is needed for lazarus use
but not enough to actually build the compiler which does seem a bit
strange. This is not raspbian specific, the packages in debian are the
same way.
