#12896: NEW: fpc-2.2.0 -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: jbacon@mcw.edu | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Submissions Component: ports | Version: 1.5.2 Resolution: | Keywords: fpc pascal Port: | -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Comment(by ryandesign@macports.org): Replying to [comment:7 boeyms@…]:
In order to build fpc, you need to have (among other things) a Pascal compiler already installed, since it is written in Pascal. The binary installation available from www.freepascal.org is only available on a disk image.
If you want to have the port build this file, disk images are not a problem. Support for extracting from disk images will be in MacPorts 1.7.0 with the {{{use_dmg yes}}} option. Or you can do it manually, like the isightcapture port does. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/12896#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
