I build FPC cross-compilers for Windows, Macintosh and (32 bit) Linux on a
Debian Wheezy 64 bit host.
There appears to be a bug in the build process that produces dodgy
*crosszipinstall
tarballs* for Windows.
This applies to FPC 2.6.0, 2.6.2 RC1 and 2.7.1 (today's SVN head). It's
completely broken in 2.7.1 so I'll ignore that.
Below is the *build script* and the (filtered) *directory layout* of each
tarball produced when building 2.6.2 RC 1.
*fpc-2.6.2rc1.x86_64-linux.tar.gz* is the native compiler. All the others
are all cross-compilers.
Both windows compilers have directory structures that are different and
seem to be wrong.
They do not appear to map where *fpc* expects to find *ppcross386* and *
ppcrossx64* compilers (i.e. *lib/fpc/2.6.2*) and instead they are located
in *bin/<arch>/*. Further, the tarball cannot simply be unpacked at the
installation root (e.g. /usr/local) to have everything put in the correct
place.
I can manually work around this problem but am I missing something?
Is this installation difference intentional?
Is there some additional option required when building cross compilers for
Windows?
Many thanks, Cheers, Bruce.**
