FPCupDeLuxe install on Linux cheatsheet
From Lazarus wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
long story short:
- install Lazarus via apt or some other package-manager
- download, unzip and compile fpcupdeluxe
- 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.
