I do this, because lazarus does not - out of the box - support the
passing of the version to FPC as in:
fpc -V2.6.4
for instance, the above command will execute the correct binary:
ppcx64-2.6.4, as can be seen as:
home: >fpc -V2.6.4 -iV
2.6.4
home: >fpc -V2.7.1 -iV
2.7.1
I guess this can also be solved with the dialog that Mattias mentions,
but I believe that this should in fact be solved at a more fundamental
level.
Maybe the lazarus devels are not aware of this -V option. It's not
widely used or propagated, after all.
The other issue is how to tell the IDE where the FPC sources are, and to
keep everything in step. I normally copy a cleaned version of the
sources into e.g. /usr/local/lib/fpc/2.6.2/fpcsrc.
