Hello!
I still have a problem with the pascal compiler installation but now I have more informations... And it is more a problem with linux than with the installation itself.
Here is the generic procedure for installing GNU Pascal :
1. Unpack the source distributions.
From a directory of your choice (e.g. `/usr/local/src'), unpack the GNU CC and GNU Pascal source distributions. This will create separate subdirectories for GCC and GPC.
`cd' to the GPC directory (`/usr/local/src/gpc' in the example above) and move the contents (a subdirectory `p') to the GCC directory (for instance `usr/local/src/gcc-2.8.1').
At this point, all is ok.
Next, go to the GCC source directory and apply the GCC patch required by GNU Pascal:
% patch -s -p1 < p/diffs/gcc-2.8.1.diff
The problem arise at this moment when I do "cd gcc-2.8.2; patch -s -p1 <p/diffs/gcc-2.8.1.diff", the following message appears : "bash : patch : command not found".
So, I understand that it is not a problem with the installation but with my linux configuration. The command patch is missing and I have no idea of how to get it.
let me know if my understanding is correct and if you can help me,
thanks a lot in advance,
Nathalie
