Hi,

In this test installation of Lazarus 2.0.0RC3 the IDE does not show
the components palette, and under View -> Components the lists are
empty.

This I did: Installed Linux Mint 18 Sarah 32-Bit on an old x86
notebook. Downloaded fpc-laz_3.0.4-1_i386.deb, fpc-src_3.0.4-1_i386
and lazarus-project_2.0.0RC3-0_i386.deb from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/.

Then I installed the three deb files with GDebi and started the
Lazarus IDE. A warning "directory lcl not found" appeared. I clicked
on "Start IDE". Under Tools -> Options -> Environment, the field
"Lazarus directory" is empty.
If you installed Lazarus the first time on this computer, on start you
should see "Welcome to Lazarus 2.0.0RC3" and the Lazarus directory
should be set to" /usr/share/lazarus".

Are you sure you installed it for the first time?
Close the IDE, remove the ~/.lazarus directory and then start the IDE
again.

Hello, Mattias,

maybe (am not sure) in a first attempt  I had installed and deinstalled Lazarus 1.6, which  is offered by this distro. Later when I tried to install RC3, GDebi told me, there was an package conflict with fpc. I did  sudo apt-get purge fpc and then sudo apt-get autoremove. Now RC3 could be installed.

Following your advice, I removed the ~/.lazarus directory of the default user, and the problem was gone.
