As the saying goes "Assumption is the mother of all ...." I was under the impression that I was rebuilding the complete FPC RTL, but in reality it was not the case. For the benefit of anyone out there that may not yet know how to do a RTL rebuild and is interested, I found the following method will no doubt make sure that the complete FPC RTL is rebuilt and used in the rebuilding of Lazarus and its LCL. (may be a pun in there somewhere) Following, is as found on my system. Yours may be different. from: /usr/share/fpcsrc/rtl run: make clean all install from: /usr/share/fpcsrc/packages run: make clean all install The new RTL files will be copied to: /usr/local/lib/fpc/2.2.5/units/i386-linux Next, copy the files in the above directory (/usr/../units/i386-linux) into /usr/lib/fpc/2.2.5/units/i386-linux Getting Lazarus to use the new FPC RTL: Allow Lazarus to rebuild the LCL and itself from within Lazarus or use Lazarus's make files. That's it. Regards, Nino _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
