I try to install some components, but the installations are broken
with the same error.
A.e. it stop with 'dbflaz.pas(6,2) Fatal:Syntax error, "Beginn"
expected but "." found'. This message ist not wrong, because the unit
beginn with :

{ Diese Datei ist automatisch von Lazarus erzeugt wurden. Sie
.... }
.unit DBFLaz

interface
.
.
.
end.

Why the point is before 'unit'. What can i do to install components.
Can anybody tell me what is the mistake? Is my handling to install
components wrong?

There was a bug in the german translation. Either switch to another
language OR use the current lazarus from cvs OR fix it:
Search for "Diese Datei ist automatisch von Lazarus erzeugt" in
languages/lazaruside.de.po. There you see the point outside the curly
brackets. Remove it.
You don't need to rebuild the IDE. Just restart the IDE to reload the
translation file and remove the buggy unit source - the IDE will
generate a new one.
