coexistence of linux and win32 IDE, crossfpc
lazarus / 1-Linux

I installed fpc 2.2.0, crossfpc and Lazarus IDE (from source) on
OpenSuse Linux.
In fact I tried to use two separate copies of Lazarus IDE- one
compiled for win32 and other for Linux, on the same machine. But, it
seems that they interfere with each other. For example, when I tried
to add package to Linux copy of IDE, it complained about duplicate
files, because the package has been already installed on win32 copy,
in a separate folder...
Is it possible to use both on the same machine, without interference?

Regards,

Zlatko

AFAIK, it is impossible that Linux copy interferes on Windows copy or
vice-versa. Linux and Windows have their own partition on disk and no
configuration files on each partition can be used so.

Did you install the Win32 and Linux copies on the same paritions?
I use win32 lazarus on Win XP NTFS partition and Lazarus for Linux on
SAM linux on ext3 and I never had that kind of prooblems you mean.

Sorry guys, I lead you to wrong conclusions, I instaled "fpc-
crosswin32" rpm, not not ""crossfpc":)
Everything on the same partition, two separate folders for two copies
of IDE: one for Linux, compiled with "make clean all", the second one
for Windows (Wine) with "make clean all OS_TARGET=win32"...
