Right

It does copy the lfm to units/powerpc-darwin/keymapshortcutdlg.lfm

It then just chokes on the next one.

Hrm.. it seems make distclean is leaving .ppu's in the powerpc-darwin directory. I can work around 
this bug by using :

find . -name *.ppu -exec rm {} +

..prior to the build.

Unfortunately when I execute :

make LCL_PLATFORM=gtk2 OPT="-gl -CX" all idepkg

I get this :

Last time this happened I worked around it by deleting ~/.lazarus and reinstalling my packages from 
scratch, but that's so ugly I don't even consider it a workaround.

I did a -va on this one, but after over 2000 lines of it searching every path for codetools.pp 
except the one it's actually in I gave up trying to trim it and post it.

The annoying thing is up until very recently (certainly well after I migrated to fpc 2.4.1) this all 
used to work fine.

Brad
