When I moved from 0.9.24 to 0.9.26 I had to find again on internet all
the packages I used to have and reinstall :-(

I install external 3rdParty packages (not included with Lazarus) in a
separate folder from the Lazarus directory. eg:

 /opt/lazarus/              <-- lazarus IDE, LCL, source
 /opt/lazarus-addons/       <-- external addons

That way I can trash, reinstall, upgrade /opt/lazarus/ and my 3rdParty
addons stay untouched.


I also use this approach, but the problem is you still have to reinstall them in the new lazarus starting with a fresh configuration[*], otherwise, for components bundled with lazarus, the configuration files will point to components in the old lazarus directory.


[*] I actually do a quick search & replace with perl to change the old path to the new one.
