Thanks Michael. Jonas tip allows me to see what is happening when using Geany. In the case of fpGUI , the fpmake creates all the .ppu and .o files and places them in directory ../i386-linux.
Using either the wildcard * or absolute name of the directory is ok . The compiler finds (in this example) fpg_base but then wants to get the next unit (fpg_impl) called in fpg_base , but seems to expect the .pas file rather than just using the .ppu and .o files that have already been compiled. It is as if the compiler is trying to build rather than just linking the existing compiled .ppu and .o files. Searching file /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.4/fpg_impl.pas... not found Fatal: Can't find unit fpg_impl used by fpg_base Is there any way to tell the compiler to just link existing .ppu and .o files ?
