I have this error: E2411 Unit %s in package %s refers to unit %s

  • 0

I have this error:

E2411 Unit %s in package %s refers to unit %s which is not found in
any package. Packaged units must refer only to packaged units (Delphi)

Delphi Help is extremely helpful and it says:

No further information is available for this error or warning.

Why I can’t refer to a unit that is not part of a package?

UPDATE:

Never-ending story: Putting the file in its own package breaks something else: Unit GIFImg was compiled with a different version of CCR.Exif.Consts.SOutOfResources
This is why I wanted NOT to put the file in its own package.

    You can’t refer to a unit that is not part of a package because a package needs to be a self-contained piece of software. That means that a package must contain all units it uses or have them available through packages in its requires clause.

    To solve this error you can either

    • include the unit in the package that you are building, or
    • add the package which contains that unit to the requires list of the package you are building.
