[DUG] Runtime packages

[Myles Penlington]

You might be mixing runtime and designtime packages. 
By excluding the vcl/rtl packages on one list, but not the other causes
the units contained in those packages to be compiled into your exe.
However your wildsoft bpl will still attempt to use/load those packages,
hence at some stage you hit a duplicate.

In essence, if you use packages, all your bpl's/exe must use the same
list of packages.

Thanks Myles

So do you think my package is using a different copy of a package than 
my main app?  (thus the TQuikRep duplicate error)

I am still at a lack to explain the WildSoftD2007.bpl missing error.  
Any suggestions there?
