I think my linux system must have changed without me knowing because when I try to link a simple Project1 application I get linking errors as follows:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgdk-x11-2.0
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgtk-x11-2.0
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgobject-2.0
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lglib-2.0
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgthread-2.0
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgmodule-2.0
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpango-1.0
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcairo
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -latk-1.0
I don't use this particular machine very often (probably 3 months ago since last usage).
Can anyone tell by the messages what might have happened since then?
Is the solution to uninstall Lazarus and do a re-install?
I'm using FPC 3.1, I just noticed too that the menu has disappeared from my lazarus IDE, is there a way to get it to come back, I tried max/restore window, right clicking/alt-key etc. It is the new docked layout that I am less familiar with.
Thanks
