Ok, you're right, using the above options and avoiding DESTDIR the
compilation goes fine and the packages build without any problem.
Now, my problem is a step forward. When launching the ide, I get the
"Fmain.$load.1109: Unknown function call"

Any idea so far? I've checked the code and, obviously, there is no line
1109 in Fmain...
