After many years of not working with Pascal, I want to use it again.
When testing out the postgresql connection using an example
(testpg2.pp) in the documentation I can compile it with the original
Makefile, but not when I want to complie a 64-bit binary on my
Debian. The Makefile seems to use 32-bit compilation.
The error I am regularly getting is (from both the fp and fpc that it
cannot find the unit postgres.
So after a lot of experimentation I added
-Fu/usr/share/fpcsrc/2.6.0/packages/postgres/src/ in /etc/fpc.cfg.
Now the compilation ends with

Error: /usr/bin/ppcx64 returned an error exitcode (normal if you did
not specify a source file to be compiled)
Do I first have to comple the package postgres before I use it?
Will this be the case for all the units?

I've been using Pascal on and off since 1978 - Apple Pascal, Turbo
Pascal, Delphi and now Free Pascal using the Lazarus IDE. I can't
comment on your specific problem because I've had no problems compiling
to 32bit and 64bit executables using Lazarus.
If you're not using Lazarus, you may want to install it. It certainly
makes life easier. It recently reached v1.0 so it's "mature" and stable.
It's also multi-platform, so I can compile Windows executables and run
them under Wine for Linux and Mac support. In fact, I can do this from
Linux or from a Windows virtual machine.
