Link error: skipping incompatible ...o
lazarus / 1-Linux

Installing Lazarus on openSUSE 10.3 (64 bit) from RPM's failed (did
nothing?), so I tried the src.tar, then the SVN trunk. Compilation
seems to succeed, but then I get the following error:

Linking ../lazarus

linux/4.2.1/crtbegin.o when searching for /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-

I have no idea what "incompatible" means, and how to cure this error
:-(

I guess you used a ppc386  (=32bit) to compile lazarus, so it wants to
find 32bit libraries (64bit is "incompatible" with 32bit)

edit your /etc/fpc.cfg and add a line -Fl similar to the existing -Fl
line and point to the location of 32bit libs (/usr/lib)

(or use ppcx64)
