It seems not, so I spent some time on it and managed to build packages for Red Hat 9 which seem to work well enough. I'll try building FC1 packages next. If anyone has any interest in these packages, please let me know. If anyone thinks these might be useful in Fedora Extras or some other repository, please let me know what I should do to move in that direction.

Thanks JLT
I still use Pascal. It is a good programming language. I started on a VAX/VMS system, moved to Turbo Pascal-Delphi-Kylix and still find it very useful.
And we have to remmember that many people still like to code in pascal...
