Thanks for the help.

I've done it. Removed the Lazarus packages, kept back the fpc
packages and installed the one you pointed me to.

I've tried the same operation: installed new package lazdatadict
and rebuild the IDE.

After a while of compilation I got:

"Compiling package lazdatadict 0.0" completed
components/lazutils/masks.pas(23,22)Fatal: Can't find unit contnrs used by Masks

This sounds familiar to me. I think I got the same some years
ago as I played with Lazarus for the first time.

Anyway, I've to leave now. I'll keep tweaking with Lazarus
next week.

Best regards
Norbert
