I am trying to bring forward a BCB6 project to BDS2006. I succeeded in
getting everything to compile, but am now encountering problems at link.
Specifically, I get "Unable to open file JVBUTTONS.obj". (I assume this
is just the tip of the iceberg; I use a lot of Jedi components.)

My project Options | Linker | Paths contains:

$(BDS)\..\..\JediBDS\Jvcl\lib\d10;
$(BDS)\..\..\JediBDS\Jcl\Jcl\lib\d10;
$(BDS)\..\..\JediBDS\Jvcl\run;
$(BDS)\..\..\JediBDS\Jvcl\resources;
$(BDS)\lib\obj;
$(BDS)\lib\psdk;
$(BDS)\lib

JvButtons.dcu is in $(BDS)\..\..\JediBDS\Jvcl\lib\d10; Is the d10 folder
the correct one to use for the C++ personality?

"Build with runtime packages" is disabled.

I created a test project that uses a TJvHTButton (that is, this is NOT
an upgrade from BCB6, but a build-from-scratch project). It compiles,
links and runs... but the project options make no mention of Jedi at all.

Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

Trying to Compile the JEDI Library with BCB6 and BDS2006 in the same
computer was a nightmare for me. Especially when you try to update the
libraries automatically. I found the solution like that, may be it may
help you.
1) Run msconfig.exe. And create a restore point.
2) take the backup of CBuilder6 and BDS folders in a safe place.
3) Move the CBuilder6 folder where ever you want that would not sense
the JEDI iınstaller.
4) Now you can Install the JEDI library only for BDS. It must be
installed without any problem. If you encounter an error certainly there
are files that can not be deleted from previous installations. Try to
get rid of the files that is starting with JV from BDS directory.
Repeat the installation.
5) Now move the BDS to safe place and bring back the CBuilder6 to the
old place. Repeat the same process.
6) If something goes wrong you can turn on the last restore point

Thank you, Sabetay... and yikes!

I do seem to have Jedi properly installed, and am able to switch between
my BCB6 and BDS2006 environments without any problems. As you
recommended, I put the BDS version of the Jedi library into a folder
separate from the one I used for BCB6. And if I start a BDS project from
scratch, I can use the Jedi components just fine.

But you're absolutely right... upgrading a project from BCB6 to BDS2006
is a nightmare.
