I thought the tar options were supposed to handle this? fakeroot was for the
sources iirc.

Re: [fpc-pascal] Installing fpc

2015-09-07 Thread Steph Bredenhann
Thanks for the reply, you are more than welcome to register my email on 
your mailing list. I got the email address in a google search when I 
searched for a solution.


To come back to the response on my email: I've started off by 
downloading the lazarus1.4.2.deb file (I use Ubuntu 14.04) and used 
gdebi and later dpkg without success, the message was consistently the 
fpc > 2.6.4 was required, and although I have installed fpc-2.6.4 the 
result remained the same.


So I downloaded the .tar fail and execute sudo ./install, that was when 
I got the message:


"invalid user: ‘michael:michael’"

Most likely, this is for the documentation.

What did you use to install FPC ?

Please note that the original poster is not subscribed to the mailing list
(although he has not mentioned this fact in his post), so I'd suggest to
include his address in Cc: of replies (done now, so he should have the
first response quoted above).

I'll revert to the 2014-era Raspbian and take a look this afternoon.

Raspbian 2015-05-05 is better, there's a benign failure (unable to find 
crtbegin.o) which doesn't appear to break anything but can be fixed by a 
-Fl.

Hello all,

and running the present version gives "no permission" for the
serial/usb ports.  Please advise how to get the program running with
these ports. (lazarus 1.2.4 fpc 2.6.4).


For Debian you usually have to be part of the "dialout" group to have
access to the serial ports.


Same for Slackware and possibly others. Always catches me out, despite 
doing quite a lot of this sort of stuff.
