When using a trunk compiler (that was a given from OP) the only way
to update is the following:
# update rtl & compiler to latest trunk.
svn update rtl compiler
# run cycle using latest release.
make cycle PP=latest-release # now you have latest rtl & compiler
ready to install.
make install
That's incorrect, you never need an explicit "make cycle". Simply do
the following in the top level FPC directory:
make distclean
svn up
make FPC=latest-release all -j ncpus FPMAKEOPT="-T ncpus"
make install
The top-level "make all" already includes a "make cycle" and will also
compile packages and utils
