interesting. the above script has been widely circulating on the lazarus/FPC forums, and to date none of the 'experts' there, including Marco, have suggest it is deficient. this silence disappoints me. what is required to rebuild the "Lazarus packages" locally? i do notice that from within the Lazarus IDE there is a menu option to 'rebuild all', but that this does not work (for Linux users at least) as, in part at least, doing so requires running as root. simply downloading the pre-compiled git version of anything is pointless, as anything pre-built from there is going to contain the same pairing of fnmatch/libgtk-x11-2.0.so. cheers, rob :-) _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
