How to recompile RB6.03 from source code

edited September 2002 in General
I went to recompile RB6.03 pro from source code to include a (DM provided)
patch and now I have a smouldering heap!

Obviously changing the library settings for ReportBuilder from 'lib' to
'source' and then recompiling DCLRB55.dpk was not the thing to do.

Anyone got some idiot proof instructions for how to recompile RB6.03 from
source code in D5?

    Do not recompile any RB packages. Any patches which need to be applied are
    only intended to work at runtime using the source pas files. Some patches
    have a change to the implementation sectin and cannot be recompiled with RAP
    linked in as the RAP source is not distributed. The next maintenance
    release will address that issue and provide updated rb packages.
