I am running into this issue now, because I want to upload a fixed cge
for fpc 3.0.0. I compiled fps_game with the script and that runs fine. I
tried to export FPCDIR in several locations, but that didn't help. Seems
like we need to fix fpmake in fpc. Does anybody have a good idea how to
debug this and what to use as a patch? @Michalis, where do YOU set the
FPCDIR?
