I never install binary releases of the various distro packages - they
are always out of date. Installing from source and wanting to compile,
you need all the *-devel packages, which comes standard with
Slackware. So it just works.

Did I mention SVN and Git come standard with Slackware too. :-)

That's the problem for the documentation writers, not for the
documentation tools. On the topic, I can add that the FPC docs are
very good. It's class documentation from other frameworks that are
lacking.
