[Pkg-pascal-devel] Bug#887575: castle-game-engine FTBFS with fpc 3.0.4

[Michalis Kamburelis]

The problem is caused by the different directories used by new FPC
3.0.4 packages (compared to previous versions of FPC in Debian).

Doing

  ./fpmake --globalunitdir="/usr/lib/fpc/3.0.4"

doesn't work, since /usr/lib/fpc/3.0.4 does not exist. This works:

  ./fpmake --globalunitdir="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/fpc/3.0.4"

To fix this, I suggest to

- Change / define the $FPCDIR variable inside Debian build scripts, to
point to the new correct directory.

- Or create a symlink /usr/lib/fpc/3.0.4 ->
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/fpc/3.0.4 .
