Lazarus Packages (the files it lists) are dependent to a set directory
structure. Because you copied the Lib directory to a new location and
copied the indylaz.lpk in there, now the paths don't match up - so that
explains why it does work.

Simply delete your components/indy/ directory. Open the indylaz.lpk (my
copy) from inside the Indy SVN checkout directory. Click Compile, then
Install. It should work just fine then.

hehehe... As I said, I don't normally install packages into Lazarus, so
I never noticed that. I just tested, and see those in my copy too - no
idea what the 'am' and 'nz' is meant to be. I'll take a look at the
source code later to see if that gives any hints. I don't think it is
country codes though. ;-)
