[Lazarus] changing some FPC units

[Alberto Manganaro]

Well, but I don't want to install a new version fo the package, I just 
want to modify something in the original code, recompile it and use the 
unit in Lazarus.

I tried again but I can't figure it out, so my question is: where does 
Lazarus take the compiled FPC libraries to be linked with my project? 
When I put the recompiled files in the correct place in the FPC units 
folder, it seems that when I compile my Lazarus project it takes the 
units without modification! Thanks

A.
