Can you compile your compiler with debug info (add OPT="-O- - > g" to your make command) and attach with gdb to see what the compiler > is doing?
I might need a hand with that- it's a level of hackery that I've not previously attempted. However what I'm currently looking at is that make output gets as far as telling me that ppcsparc is processing gtkglarea.pp and announcing that ar is creating ../libpgtkglarea.a. Using top and ps faux I can see that ppcsparc is sitting there forking sh which execs ar, ar and sh terminate (result unknown) and a new copy of sh is forked... it's been doing that for a couple of hours. Looking where the action is I can see that libgtkglarea.a is 8 bytes long and a couple of hours old, there's a gtkglarea.sl directory containing a number of .o files all of which again appear to be a couple of hours old. I'm going to back off and let Debian do an update in case anything is known to be broken, then I'll start off by looking at some of the other make targets. -- Mark Morgan Lloyd markMLl .AT. telemetry.co .DOT. uk [Opinions above are the author's, not those of his employers or colleagues] _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
