Two simultaneous Lazarus copies operational in Linux 64 bit
Typically, you have a primary install via fpcUP in ~/development.
But you also want a secondary test version in /workdir/LazB independently, possibly for release testing of Lazarus ver. 1.4
Here is a run-through to achieve that. Let's assume:
- We use the Linux distro: mint 17.1 KDE 64 bit of 2015 (Kubuntu should work too, I guess)
- primary Lazarus resides in ~/development installed via fpcUP
- no other Lazarus installed via debian or whatever, which could interfere somehow
- /home/you below refers to your ~ aka home-directory aka $HOME aka /home/michael or whatever name you chose.
In ~ create two shell scripts : runL1.sh and runL2.sh containing
#!/bin/sh /home/you/development/lazarus/startlazarus --primary-config-path=~/.lazarus1st
and
#!/bin/sh /home/you/development/lazarus/startlazarus --primary-config-path=~/.lazarus2nd
respectively.
