[Lazarus] Update Lazarus from svn, what happens on rebuild?

[John Landmesser]

All packages become part of the lazarus executable.

Thats different from Delphi for example where packages are dynamical loaded.



This one builds the IDE with all extra packages you installed yourself:

make clean lazbuild useride starter

i Hope, thats a useful and correct answer!
