long story short:

  • install Lazarus via apt or some other package-manager
  • download, unzip and compile fpcupdeluxe - or use fpcupdeluxe-binary and omit steps 1 and 3
  • purge the above Lazarus
  • now use fpcupdeluxe to install an isolated Laz: choose trunk , x86_64 , linux , trunk and click the green thumbs-up button.
  • fpc , the actual Pascal compiler, will not be in the searchpath, hence make will require extra parameters; a mere make all won't work now.
  • Use the provided launcher in ~ or home/YOU/Desktop (.desktop file) to run "startlazarus" employing a --pcp directive to keep multiple Lazaruses apart.
  • This method may or may not succeed. It can be made to work though.
