And why should that be the case? What are the outstanding feature of C
that make it so supperiour? It's illogical and hard to maintain syntax?
Or is it just that it was available for free on all unix systems?
Yes, it is available everywhere.
And it is easier to copy unix code then.
Remember that it is still not easy to come to freepascal.
You have to configure a debian testing system and apt-get lazarus
and so on...
Nearly nowhere the lazarus package is preinstalled.
Standard user distributions do not install any development software.
This is how linux distros work and is the same for every devel
software, not only lazarus.
Some distros allow to create your own custom install CD/DVD.
This is used for network installs or for pools.
Maybe it is possible write a linux "installer", which analyzes your
system and downloads and installs all needed packages.
