The lcl-fpgui has never worked. The current lcl-fpgui implementation is far from complete. Last time I checked, only about 5 basic components could be dropped on a form and displayed, but much of the implementation still needs to be done before it is near usable. If you want to use fpGUI today, then use fpGUI directly, without the LCL. That is the only way you will get the full benefit of fpGUI. The fpGUI release also includes an add-on package that registers a new project type with Lazarus IDE (File > New... > fpGUI app). You can also integrate the fpGUI DocView (INF help viewer) and fpGUI UI Designer (visual forms designer) with Lazarus IDE, via the "external tools" menu option. This allows you to press Shift+F1 and get context sensitive help (FCL, RTL, LCL and Language Reference) without the need for internet access. You can also edit a unit and press Ctrl+Shift+F12 and load the UI Designer with the current unit you were editing. When you return to Lazarus IDE, the ide will prompt to reload the file (if it changed). We [our company] have been using Lazarus IDE like this for the last 4 years with great success. The same integration can be done with MSEide as well. If you want I can add a web page describing in detail how to setup the IDE integration with Lazarus IDE and MSEide. I think I should do this in any event before the final v0.7 release.
