Lazarus is a Delphi like programming environment for Windows, Mac, Unix, and Linux. Uses the free Pascal language.

This is dirt simple, but it  may confuse you if you get a depends error and are new to Linux. The latest release is: 0.9.22 released 3/27/2007

Get the files here

Download fp_all_deb.tar     (will save you from having to download them individually)
Download lazarus_0.9.22-1_i386.deb

Install the following from the command prompt:

sudo apt-get install libgdk-pixbuf-dev libgtk1.2-dev


Now untar fp_all_deb.tar, right click in Konqueror, extract.

Right Click each file starting with fp in Konqueror and select "Kubuntu Package Manager", "Install"

These must be installed in order or you will get depend errors. I think these three will start you off in the right order - save fp-units-gnome1... for last:

fpc-crosswin32_...
fp-units-base...
fp-units-rtl...

 I wasn't paying attention when I installed these and this post was a last minute thing. Either way keep installing until they all get installed then once they are all installed you can install Lazarus_0.9.22...

Now do an Update. Most likely the Updater will notify you that there are updates. If you find the program freezing reboot your system.

You can uninstall using Adept if you decide not to keep it. You will find the Lazarus entry in the KDE menu under development. Have fun...
