I don't have a working Lazarus on my Ubuntu at the moment, but once it used to... i brokes it
Have you tried simply from Synaptic packet handler? You can set it to list external sources or something if fpc doesn't list by default.
What i guess should be done is a perfect clean up first.
Also the way some people install it, is extracting them in your /home/ or something manually. That way the files are all in 1 place like in Windows and you may have easier time with it. Ubuntu is using so many different folders in the system that it makes head hurt.

When I did a search for Lazarus in the Synaptic package handler, it only had the 0.9.28.2 version (I think), not the 0.9.30 version - but this might not matter and I should just look for freepascal first using that and see what I can find (2.4.x hopefully).
If I can find freepascal using the package manager, then this might solve my dependency issue
EDIT: apparently I need to install the binary version AND source version of freepascal in Linux for Lazarus to work! What a pain in the arse
Wish me luck!!
cheers,
Paul

ok, the only freepascal I found with the package manager was the alternate IDE to Lazarus (can't recall the name now)...

Hey all,
since I was using Ubuntu in a virtual machine, it was rather slow. So I have bit the bullet so to speak, deleted a bunch of stuff on my laptop to make room, and now I have installed Ubuntu as a separate program (not needing a separate partition - is supposed to have slightly lower disc access performance, but it seems quite fast for me).
This means I can boot into Vista or Ubuntu now (yay!)
I am now starting again with my Ubuntu software including Lazarus. I have now found this page:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/I...11.04_or_later
and I seem to be having more luck with this way of installing Lazarus (touch wood...and trying not to jinx me! haha)
Hopefully this time will be the charm!
(Written from Ubuntu, Google Chrome)...
cheers,
Paul

Woo Hoo!! it works!!
Now all I need to do is figure out how to dock the messages + source + menu windows together - I did do this in a windows version of Lazarus but I can't recall how now LOL
EDIT: ok, I went here:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Anchor_Docking
See this part of the text:
I hope this helps somone else!There is an IDE package which makes the Lazarus IDE dockable. It is called anchordockingdsgn.lpk. Make sure you only install one docking package. Do not install the easydockmgr at the same time!
cheers,
Paul
