There are probably more error messages, but maybe they were skipped
and not shown in the message window. Can you reproduce the issue and
send all messages please? You can get all messages with right click on
messages and use "Save all messages to file". Then I can extend the
filter to show these messages.

The devel package installs the .h files (which FPC does not need) and
sets a link from unspecific .so file to the current .so version. In
short words: It sets a default.
