Odd error opening forms using Lazarus on OSX under certain
circumstances
lazarus / 10-Designer

I have some common ancestor forms (.dfm) in my *shared* dir.
If I use  Lazarus OSX *or*  Lazarus Windows to show one of
these common forms (including common ones that inherit from
other common ones) I can easily do so.

However, I have a problem when:
1) I use Lazarus OSX.
2) I open a project.
2.A) Project has *shared* dir in "Other unit files" and "Include
files".
2.B) my "programlazarus.dpr" file explicity define path of all my
common
forms + the new project specific forms that inherit from my common
ones.
3) I try open a project form that inherits from one of my common ones.

I get this error:
QuoteUnable to find the component class "__TmisvFrontBase" It is not
registered via RegisterClass and no lfm was found. It is needed by
unit
[/Volumes/ImageDiskW/W/MyProject/MyForm.pas
This I simply do not understand since I otherwise can open similar
forms
(that inherit from other common ones) in my *shared* directory
+ I do not hget any errors in Lazarus / Windows
