Check if package FCL is in the dependencies. You could try to run Free Pascal on the command-line (powershell). Try 'ppc386 -vut'. Then see which fpc.cfg is being used. Open that file and search for lines that start with '-Fu' and see if the path is correct.

[Lazarus] Lazarus FPC Debian BackPorts
Hi, ( apologies for cross-posting ) I'm in the process of investigating the possible path I should take to help the Debian pkg-pascal-team to provide backport's packages for Debian Wheezy and Jessie ( and why not Squeeze LTS ). Will the Lazarus 1.2.x tree continue to support fpc 2.6.0 ? OTH, maybe it's more easy to just package the latest stable for both FPC and Lazarus ( 2.6.4 and 1.2.6 ) for all Debian versions.

It would be a big plus if any new Debian release would use the latest fpc/laz version. OTOH I'm not sure if backport users want the latest and greatest. 2.6.4 introduced some incompatibilities vs 2.6.0.

[Lazarus] "Rename identifier" issues
Hello I currently use Lazarus 1.2.6 / fpc 2.6.4. I have 2 issues with it First of all, I believe the message is slightly wrong: instead of "Choose a name for the new component", it should be "Choose a new name for the component". Here is my second issue: In a small project with only one Form, I decided at one point to rename the standard TForm1 to TMainForm and the variable Form1 to MainForm (using the F2 shortcut in both circumstances). The renaming apparently proceeded correctly and fpc compiled my application without problem. But when I ran it, I got an EResNotFound with the message "Form resource TMainForm not found (...)". I then discovered that in TMainForm.lfm still contained "object Form1: TForm1". Of course, simply renaming the component Form1 to MainForm solved the issue. In this situation, shouldn't renaming the variable with F2 also rename the component or at least suggest to do it? -- Frederic Da Vitoria (davitof) Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
