This was already some time discussed here and in my opinion this is the
bottleneck of working with freepascal on linux.
This is why I don't use the packages provided by my distribution (though
I just noticed that ArchLinux already provides 2.6.0 :) ), but install
them manually either by the *.tar installer provided with each release
or through "make install" if I'm working with a dev version. And I also
have a nice system to switch between versions easily ;)

Sven

I tried ArchLinux, but stopped when this distribution wants to be configured
manually. User-friendlyness is also the bottleneck of Linux.
I personally prefer this "manual configuration" to that provided by
distros like Ubuntu and such. My nearly 7 year old laptop runs much
faster with Arch than it did with Kubuntu (which was my first Linux
distro I fully used) as only those applications, services etc are
running that I truly need (and I don't use any desktop manager, only a
slim window manager ^^)

Sven
