I am getting many duplicate errors like the following:

Note: Duplicate unit "ZDbcLogging" in "zcore 7.1", orphaned ppu
"/home/terry/zeosdbo/ZEOSDBO-7.1.3a-stable/packages/lazarus/lib/x86_64-
linux/ZDbcLogging.ppu"

So I think I messed up the zeosdbo install.

Also this line isn't compiling, so I think a library might be missing.

Chart2PieSeries1.AddPie(SaveRec.EV, State, clRed);
