But what exactly is missing from lazarus then ? These statements are all
too vague. Lazarus does not need any particular version of fpc per se
(other than being >= 2.0.0), but you do need a tools -> build lazarus if
you switch from one version to another, to recompile the LCL units to be
compiled compatible to your installed FCL units from FPC.
