Hi all,

Has anyone  any idea of what that might be causing the above ?

Background:

I have had both fpc and lazarus svn working for quite  a while now, at least a year - though this is my first attempt at an update for a while.  Both local repositories were set up in XP SP 2  using tortosieSVN.  I am now trying use SVN in ubuntu 8.1 on the same PC (alternate boot), using the same local repository. 

Is there any fundamental reason why I cannot do this ? 

Anyway, it seems to work for Lazarus, but I am getting "svn: Decompression of svndiff data failed" for fpc, in both XP (tortoise) and ubuntu (command line svn).  Searching through the SVN documentation for this error I only found references to the main repository being corrupted, which isn't likely as lots of people would have reported it by now.

If I press on and try to build it anyway ( I did an svn export, then build all) I get an error as below:

< lots of building, apparently including a successful "make cycle" >
:

The compiling is being done by fpc 2.2.2 which I got by installing the ubuntu debs from the fpc/lazarus site, as per "Getting_Lazarus_from_our_Ubuntu_repository" - but of course I ran into the GTK2 problems as per building ... with 2.2.2, hence the attempt to get an SVN fpc.

(The initial install of lazarus ran, but I couldn't rebuild lazarus, so I couldn't add any components)

Sorry this is so longwinded, and thanks in advance for any advice,
John Sunderland
