Can't build lazarus after install (can't install packages) (OSX) #630

I installed using FPCUPDeluxe v2.4.0a on OSX M1 using trunk + trunk. The install appeared to succeed just fine, but when I try to rebuild Lazarus while installing packages, I get the following error:

lazarus.pp(54,3) Error: Cannot find clocale used by Lazarus. Make sure all ppu files of a package are in its output directory. ppu in wrong directory=/Users/grahamegrieve/Lazarus-Trunk/fpc/units/aarch64-darwin/rtl-extra/clocale.ppu..

Have you seen this ? https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,51837.0.html Does this advice help ?

hmm, so I tried deleting everything and then just having the fpcupdeluxe install... no difference. Still the same message

This is strange.

The error is most likely caused by the Lazarus build process. The Lazarus Makefile does pick-up a lot of other things besides the fpcupdeluxe install. Fpcupdeluxe goes through great effort to prevent this when installing FPC and Lazarus. When the installed Lazarus is re-build by its own, this protection is not there anymore.

This is why the link towards the forum issue.

If there are no stray installs on your system, I am nearly out of ideas unfortunately.
