a user of Zeos (zeoslib.sourceforge.io) mentioned that our software fails to build because the unit System.NetEncoding is not available. There seems to be no package file that contains these units even though the source file is installed in /usr/share/fpcsrc/3.2.0/packages/vcl- compat/src/system.netencoding.pp.
Yes, I can see that in e.g. https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=fpc&arch=amd64&ver=3.2.2%2Bdfsg-11&stamp=1653593343&raw=0 (under the dh_missing section).
The fpc project itself ship these unit with their installer. Also the unit gets built using fpclazup. I suggest to somehow include the vcl-compat packagt that contains the System.NetEncoding unit.
Is there an existing package that makes sense to contain these units? Paul
