About a year ago or more.

Sorry, I didn't see it. In this thread? I don't read all threads.

If you are really interested in me testing, I will test.
I know for sure that some samples did not work, but I did not take notes.

Ok, I look now, randomly, at "testapp.lpi". Build fails at:

testapp.pas(38,2) Fatal: Cannot open include file "platform.inc"

sources are old, so I refresh them. [...] I do, but the error remains.

Project is at:

/usr/share/fpcsrc/packages/fv/examples/testapp.lpi

Missing file does exist, at:

/usr/share/doc/packages/fpc/examples/fv/examples/platform.inc
/usr/share/fpcsrc/packages/fv/src/platform.inc


and I copied the tree to my home dir. I have not looked at what may be the 
cause, but doing so may be offtopic for this thread. Maybe the paths are 
broken because the project was copied to HOME. Maybe the project is not 
intended for Linux, I don't know.
