I just installed Fedora Core 18 64bit in a VM.
yum is installed, but failed with an error messages.
I opened 'Software', checked for new software,
installed 'gtk2-devel' and 'fpc'. They already have fpc 2.6.2. Nice.
I tried installing 'subversion' and 'gcc', but both failed
silently without any message. They are not really needed but useful for
development. It looked as if they were installed, but were still
pending. A reboot did not help. Same effect. Not so nice.
Now magically yum works. Nice.
su: yum update
reboot
su: yum install subversion gcc
svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/trunk lazarus
cd lazarus
make bigide
./lazarus
