Hi, I'm trying to compile the SVN Trunk version using FPC 2.5.1 to bootstrap.
This is wrong. It has always been wrong and will always be wrong. Bootstrapping
has always only been supported and will always only be supported when starting
with the latest official release. There was a thread on this list just two days
ago in which I repeated that again two times:
* http://lists.freepascal.org/lists/fpc-devel/2011-September/025951.html
* http://lists.freepascal.org/lists/fpc-devel/2011-September/025953.html
And it worked without problems until today. I do this process once a month.
When I do make clean all PP=e:\pp\bin\i386-win32\ppc386.exe the compiling
process starts, and after a while, I get this error message:
process_begin: CreateProcess((null), __missing_command_CMP -i218 ppc3.exe
ppc386.exe, ...) failed.
Is this a bug?, or I have use another compiler to bootstrap?.
You have to have the directory with the binaries of a *full install* of the
latest release in your path for bootstrapping to be supported. Not a snapshot.
Not a self-compiled version. Not just a compiler binary. The complete install
of the latest release.
