I had the same problem when I tried to install Lazarus on Ubuntu Mate
18.04. I ended up installing it using the Synaptic Package Manager
because I would get the same error that you got when I tried to install
it from either the .deb files or via the regular Ubuntu Software
application. I made sure I had all possible source and binary options
selected for installation. It worked perfectly when I did it that way.
Hope this helps.
Bye,

I have been trying to upgrade to Lazarus 1.8.2.-0_amd64.deb on two
different computers and cannot get the fpc package installed. I have
downloaded fpc_3.0.4-2_amd64.deb, fpc-src_3.0.4-2_amd64.deb, and
lazarus-project_1.8.2-0_amd64.deb.
The laptop has Linux Mint 18.2, and the desktop has Linux 17.2. I have
uninstalled previous lazarus versions, and have tried to completely
remove all associated files, both using Synaptic Package Manager and
also chasing down each file and deleting them. Still, on both
machines, when I try to install fpc.3.0.4-2, I get the following
error: "errpr: breaks existing package fpc conflict 'fpc()'. On the
laptop I even did a complete disc-cleaning installation of linux mint
18.2, and repeated the process. Still get the error. What do I need
to do, now that I have two computers with no operating lazarus versions?
