This is true: tuxcmd does not recive much updates (upstream has not yet released newer versions which are consiered stable also in repsect to the tuxcmd-modules). If you look at upstream git repo you see from time to time commits. This is the reason why tuxcmd is still at same version as in Squeeze, so yes you are right it was compiled even with fpc at that time. I wonder: Should fpc maybe provide some 'api' package, and packages build-depending on it add Depends on it (maybe with some Debhelper helpers, like e.g. libdbi-perl does)? And the packages get rebuilded every time there is a new major version for fpc?
