Looks like you have moved the original situation of fpspreadsheet package, so you installed somewhere and now it is in another folder so you must uninstall it from the package manager and then open the .lpk file from the folder where it is located now.

After a clean+rebuild packages are still installed (in fact Lazarus only known that a package X is located at folder Y). There is a config file that holds that information and you can un/install them from the package manager. RP> I am a little lost.... how can I clean up my system??!!?? A good technique is use the --primary-config-path= parameter so you know exactly where Lazarus stores its config and this way you can have 2 or more completly independent copies of Lazarus (in example the last stable and the SVN one) simply setting this parameter to a different path. I think the same effect in Windows can be achieved using different usernames, one for last stable and one for SVN as in the example. -- Best regards, JoshyFun -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
