BGRA Installation on Linux
Prerequisites:
- 1. Proxmox as virtualization solution
- 2. Linux MINT 18.3 XFCE 64 bits as operating system
Using a virtualization solution has the advantage of starting with a clean system very easy. The resources of the host a well utilized in terms of, example hosting several systems on a computer instead of only one. Proxmox as open source virtualization solution has Enterprise capabilities that are found only in commercial versions of ESXi for example.
Linux MINT XFCE offers a graphic environment with a very light overhead making it a good choice for virtualization where a GUI is needed.
Steps:
- 1. Install Proxmox and have a clone of the Linux MINT as sandbox.
- 2. Install SSH server:
sudo apt install openssh-server
- 3. Install needed libraries:
sudo aptitude install -y make binutils build-essential gdb subversion zip unzip libx11-dev libgtk2.0-dev libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev unrar
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y libxtst-dev libgl1-mesa-dev
sudo apt-get install -y libatk-adaptor
- 4. Go into downloads folder and download FPCUPDeluxe with
wget --content-disposition https://github.com/newpascal/fpcupdeluxe/releases/download/v1.6.0m/fpcupdeluxe-x86_64-linux
- 5. Make the download executable with
chmod +x fpcupdeluxe-x86_64-linux
- 6. Launch the executable in the graphic console with
./fpcupdeluxe-x86_64-linux
- 7. Now select CPU x8664 and OS linux, FPC 3.0.4 and Lazarus fixes 1.8
- 8. Run the install option
- 9. After installation is done open Online Package Manager from the Package Menu. Select BGRA Bitmap and Controls and wait for download and compilation.
- 10. Open Lazarus and enjoy the new pallet entries.
