Hello,

I am trying use FFS 13.6 on new Raspberry PI5 with OS Bookworm 64-bit with latest version:
GCC 14.1.0
G++ 14.1.0
Curl 8.8.0
libssh2 1.11.0
wxWidgets 3.2.5

but it seems running 'make' for FFS 13.6 is impossible because of a lot of issues.
For example last error code which I got is: 'g++: error: unrecognized command-line option ‘-R’'.

Do you know which versions of GCC, G++, Curl, libssh2, and wxWidgets are succesfully working with FFS 13.6 or Raspberry PI5? or which is latest stable version for Raspberry PI5?

Thank you

Did you try building from the Debian source package?
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/freefilesync

You could also try to build from tag "debian/13.3-2_bpo12+1_1" from the Debian VCS repository. It should build on bookworm without any change.

Or else try taking the source package from xtradeb's PPA which is usually updated more frequently and is derived from the Debian package.

BTW, 13.6 won't build with curl 8.8.0 without patching.
