Hi, I wonder if this sentence from the buildfaq is always relevantt :
> A standard confusing detail when installing a snapshot is that the > target directory (e.g. /usr/local/lib/fpc/2.4.0) depends > on the version number. If you would follow the above sequence, and the > generated compiler (say version 2.5.1) is not equal to > the starting compiler (say version 2.4.0), then make install will > install into the wrong directory. The same goes for windows > ( c:\fpc\2.4.0 ... ) This can be solved by setting the compiler that > is generated in the "make all" step as a starting compiler > to the "make install" step. This will ensure that the "make install" > sequence gets the correct versioning info. If I build FPC from the trunk (2.5.1 currently) and set explicitly the FPC binary to the 2.4.1 version, it installs already within the right directory, lib/fpc/2.5.1/ and not in lib/fpc/2.4.1/ So I wonder if the sentence is about a behaviour in an older freepascal release, or if I completely missed something ?
