Bug#1040891: fp-compiler-3.2.0:arm64 configure failure: EInvalidOp: Invalid floating point operation

[Mollusk]

Package: fp-compiler-3.2.0:arm64
Version: 3.2.0+dfsg-12
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian...@aleeas.com

Dear Maintainer,

fp-compiler-3.2.0:arm64 completely fails on my system and has never worked.
See below following error:

sudo dpkg --audit

The following packages are only half configured, probably due to problems
configuring them the first time. The configuration should be retried using
dpkg --configure <package> or the configure menu option in dselect:
fp-compiler-3.2.0:arm64 Free Pascal - compiler

sudo dpkg --configure fp-compiler-3.2.0:arm64

Hi Mollusk,

fp-compiler-3.2.0:arm64 completely fails on my system and has never worked.

Is it possible to try upgrading your system to latest Debian release and try again?

See below following error:

sudo dpkg --configure fp-compiler-3.2.0:arm64

This looks like your FPU is not supporting some opcode generated by FPC.

It would be good to try to find which tool was running when the issue happened.

You can try to edit the /var/lib/dpkg/info/fp-compiler-3.2.0\:amd64.postinst and add set -x at the beginning to help debugging this.
