[Pkg-pascal-devel] Bug#1011318: Bug#1011318: Bug#1011318: Bug#1011318: fp terminal ide does not compile hello world

[Abou Al Montacir]

Hi All,

I've worked a bit on this issue to try to fix it. Finally I have identified 3
steps:
   1. Change the code to look for configuration files in /etc. This is done by
      replacing current patch named fix-IDE-data-file-location.patch as
      attached.
   2. Change the fp-ide post installation script to create fp IDE system wide
      configuration files. This is done a perd the attached file.
   3. Move fpmkcfg binary from fp-compiler package to fp-units-rtl. This is a
      heavy change and may cause multiple breakage before it gets its stable
      form. A simpler solution would be to make fp-ide depend on fp-compiler,
      but this is just the lazy way to fix the issue. In reality fp IDE does not
      need the external compiler, however it needs the configuration tool.

I also thought that fpcmkcfg could be moved to fp-utils, but that one depends on
fpc-source which is probably a bug. Anyway, one may want a minimal installation
where he installs only fp-ide and fp-units-rtl, so it makes sense fpmkcfg be in
that last package. Anyway, the configuration itself depends on the RTL units
location.

To be discussed.
