A few weeks ago, I successfully deployed FPC 3.2 fixes / Lazarus 2.0 fixes using Fpcupdeluxe v1.62m x64 on Windows 10 Version 1809
Today, I decided to upgrade my build of FPC/Lazarus, and was told that v1.62o was available. So, I used that version successfully to upgrade.
Then I went to my laptop running Windows 10 Version 1803, and uninstalled my older standalone instance of Lazarus 2.0R3, and used v1.62o x64 to install 3.2 fixes / 2.0 fixes. Successfully.
Flush with all this success, I went over to my another system running Windows 10 Version 1803 and tried the above. v1.62m failed with one "make" error, and v1.62o failed with a different "make" error. I've captured the latest error experienced.
This is the most prominent error:
fpcupdeluxe: ERROR: FPCNativeInstaller (GetFile): Found make executable, but it is not GNU Make.
There's nothing in my path that should create this issue.
I went to yet a different machine to raise my spirits somewhat, but alas, I met with failure here as well.
Windows 10 x64 Version 1803
In between runs, I deleted the folders and tried again. I ran Fpcupdeluxe with and without (mostly with) elevated permissions.
Summary:
1 -- Windows 10 x64 Version 1809 -- originally installed with v1.62m; successfully upgraded with v1.62o
2 -- Windows 10 x64 Version 1803 -- successfully installed with v1.62o
3 -- Windows 10 x64 Version 1803 -- unable to install with v1.62m or v1.62o
4 -- Windows 10 x64 Version 1803 -- unable to install with v1.62m or v1.62o
All versions of Fpcupdeluxe were x64, and were initially attempted with Windows-i386 cross compile enabled.
Unsuccessful attempts were subsequently tried without the cross-compile option.
