Source build fails with current stable FPC (2.4.2)
lazarus / 1-Linux

The current Lazarus stable (0.9.28.2) seem to fail to compile with the
latest FPC stable (2.4.2).

This is the current output:

The install is how i have made installs before:
fpc installed  in user directory, with bin folder added to $PATH
Lazarus source directory under user directory. ran make clean all.

OS is ubuntu 10.10 VM on virtualbox
I use source installs as I also do arm-linux cross compiles and need
to build the cross compiler with custom options for our target
processor.

Last install was 0.9.26 w/ fpc 2.2.2 which built flawless, though I
switched compiler after building lazarus.

The 0.9.28 brach used to use  fpc 2.2.4 as the compiler, that may be
the problem?

I guess that means that there is no stable version of Lazarus for the
current version of FPC since beginning November then.

That kind of sucks..I guess I will have to install an old version of
the compiler just to build the IDE then. To bad that FPC is so
intrusive beyond the install path even when installing in a private
directory on Linux and insists on putting things in /etc (if it can
write ) and your home directory, making it a pain to run parallel
versions.

Any plans to promote development versions to stable any time soon?

I would recommend just installing the "unstable" 0.9.31 version (use
svn, very easy), it is IMHO way better then 0.9.28.x.
In the past I had a stable and trunk version running concurrently
(both on Windows and Linux), but I pretty soon discovered I never
actually used the stable ones anymore, so eventually I just got rid of
them.

Sometime (not very often) after an update a new (and for me annoying
or relevant) bug is introduced, but then I simply revert to my
previous version and wait until the bug is solved (or I try to solve
it myself).

And the trunk is supposed to always compile with the latest stable fpc
release.
