I have a trunk source tree for FPC, which I checked out a few weeks ago and built fpc 3.1.1 using fpc 2.6.4 then installed it etc. Now I wanted to get to the latest revision and did an svn update in the source dir. But when I then issue 'make all' I get this message: Makefile:2873: *** The only supported starting compiler version is 2.6.4. You are trying to build with 3.1.1.. Stop. How am I supposed to update fpc 3.1.1?
You must always start with a released (currently 2.6.4) compiler. That is normal.
To do this, you can e.g. make a symlink to the 2.6.4 compiler (name it ppcarm-2.6.4) and use that when calling make:
make all PP=ppcarm-2.6.4 or, if you want to avoid the symlink, you can directly refer to the 2.6.4 compiler: make all PP=/usr/local/lib/fpc/2.6.4/ppcarm (change the path to suit your setup, obviously) I have always done the former.
