It seems not so easy to install fpc 2.3. I tried your link, after the fist step:
$MAKE all OPT='-gl -O3p3' PP=ppc386 I got: Makefile:2261: *** No libgdb.a found, supply NOGDB=1 to disable debugger support. Stop. So I used: make all OPT='gl -O3p3' NOGDB=1 PP=ppc386 and I got this error and the compilation aborted: /home/giacca/programmi/fpc-2.3/fpcsrc/compiler/ppc386 -XX -CX -Ur -Xs -O2 -n -Fu/home/giacca/programmi/fpc-2.3/fpcsrc/rtl/units/i386-linux -Fisrc -FE. -FUunits/i386-linux gl -O3p3 -di386 -dRELEASE src/aspell.pp aspell.pp(1580,1) Error: Illegal expression aspell.pp(1580,10) Fatal: Syntax error, ";" expected but "identifier ASPELL_LOADED" found Fatal: Compilation aborted make[5]: *** [aspell.ppu] Error 1 make[5]: Leaving directory `/home/giacca/programmi/fpc-2.3/fpcsrc/packages/aspell' make[4]: *** [fpc_smart] Error 2 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/giacca/programmi/fpc-2.3/fpcsrc/packages/aspell' make[3]: *** [aspell_smart] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/giacca/programmi/fpc-2.3/fpcsrc/packages' make[2]: *** [packages_smart] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/giacca/programmi/fpc-2.3/fpcsrc' make[1]: *** [build-stamp.i386-linux] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/giacca/programmi/fpc-2.3/fpcsrc' make: *** [fpcsrc/build-stamp.i386-linux] Error 2 Suggestions?
