Ah ! the liblua.a file was there at the start and then after make clean, make it was not. Thanks !
The liblua.a file is not necessarily what you think it is. On *nix platforms the .a files are used for smartlinking, not for linking against something.
I tried the -st switch but a script was not generated. I have the results below but don't worry too much about it, I am going to start fresh again
This is because you used it on the wrong file (see below). The script is only generated if the code compiles correctly.
:fpc -st helloworld.pas
This should have been for your helloworld2 to check what the linking errors are for. With the helloworld you have a compile error which is before the linking phase.
