It indeed sometimes bombs out. If you look deeper, it is fpmake not being able to delete the units/$fpctarget directory because it is not empty. So either a file or some lock is there. Trouble is that it is catastrophic (IOW further cleaning halts). A workaround is to kill the fpmake and then run distclean (then it afaik does by rm -rf) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
