I removed the duplicates and pushed the change.

They werent duplicates.
Those units (or their packages) are now hardcoded included.
This error happens everytime, when packages become part of the core list.
Because older IDE are not forward compatible with that sort of change.
Is there no way to make the IDE forward compatible with that kind of change ?
With then removed, the IDE will fail to build, when those packages are
not installed manually.

To work around:
Build once via
make clean bigide
and after that all should work.
Or remove the 3 units from lazarus.pp / rebuild / add them again
Once you have a new IDE, it wont add them to staticpackages anymore.
OK. I will re-add them.
Maybe this should be documented somewhere, or some warning should be
given on the mailing lists that this change has happened.
If I just do a git pull and have this problem, currently there is no way to
know.
And if it happens again in 5 years, I will surely have forgotten this mail.
Michael.
