Package: fpc
Severity: wishlist

Dear maintainer,

when compiling fpc from upstream, folder 
/usr/lib/fpc/3.2.2/units/x86_64-win64 would contain dependencies 
required for cross-compilation.

(source: Building on Debian, target: compilation for Windows 64 bit)

However, Debian lacks the pre-compiled dependencies for
windows that would normally reside in that folder when compiling from 
fpc upstream sources.

In Debian this would be 
/usr/lib/fpc/3.2.2/units/x86_64-ms-win64/fpc/3.2.2/units/x86_64-win64 in 
comparison to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/fpc/3.2.2/units/x86_64-linux 
that are used for amd64 and other architectures.

Kind regards,
Patrick
