I have created a Linux Mint 17.3 (Mate) virtual machine to be used with Lazarus. I had no problems installing it from sources. Here is from what I did: 1) Create the directories for files ------------------------------------ mkdir ~/dev mkdir ~/dev/fpc mkdir ~/dev/lazarus 2) Download files ------------------ FTP release 3.0.0 binary for Intel X64: ftp://freepascal.stack.nl/pub/fpc/dist/3.0.0/x86_64-linux/fpc-3.0.0.x86_64-linux.tar FTP 3.0.0 sources via svn: cd ~/dev/fpc svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/tags/release_3_0_0 3.0.0 Lazarus release 1.6 via svn: cd ~/dev/lazarus svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/tags/lazarus_1_6 1.6 3) Install FPC -------------- Unpack the FPC tar file into a temp location, then inside that dir execute: sudo ./install.sh 4) Install Lazarus ------------------ Note that this step may take quite some time... cd ~/dev/lazarus/1.6 make bigide 5) Start Lazarus IDE --------------------- ~/dev/lazarus/1.6/startlazarus Now when the start dialog shows up it will probably ask for the FPC sources. Just navigate to ~/dev/fpc/3.0.0 and hit Ok DONE! If you want a start icon on the desktop you can add it easily by: nano ~/Desktop/lazarus_1.6.desktop Then enter the following into the file: [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Exec=~/dev/lazarus/1.6/startlazarus Icon=~/dev/lazarus/1.6/images/ide_icon48x48.png Type=Application Terminal=false Comment=Lazarus IDE Name=Lazarus IDE 1.6 GenericName=lazarus 1.6 StartupNotify=false Categories=Development;IDE;Pascal; Save this (Ctl-X and yes...) Finally: chmod +x ~/Desktop/lazarus_1.6.desktop Now the start icon will appear on the desktop. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
