Hi, I really don't think it has anything to do with the used CPU type... FreeBASIC compiler is happy when it gets anything 386-compatible (IIRC FreeBASIC is emulating a FPU when none applicable has been found). Besides that, in another mail (maybe it was a mail to me only, can't remember if got its way to the list), the OP wrote that FDUPDATE is crashing when trying to apply an update. Therefore: - FDUPDATE starts correctly, - FDUPDATE makes wget downloading the index file from my server correctly, - FDUPDATE open the index file and load the package database correcyly, - It propose an update, basing on what has been found on user's system, - crash when launching wget to download that given package. So FDUPDATE is crashing the *second* time it run wget. Sounds odd. Could be indeed some "open file left" thing, but I carefully checked FDUPDATE's code, and it is closing any opened files in a clean way before calling wget/curl. I compiled a beta testing FDUPDATE v0.55 version, which is able to make use of HTGET as a downloader, hoping that it would resolve the trouble, but got no feedback yet about how it works (or not works).
