I tried this:
sudo apt-get install fpc lazarus
It gathered info for a while, then asked if I wanted to continue.
When I looked at all the stuff it had printed on screen I found it was
about to install fpc compiler 2.6.2 and lazarus 1.0.10!!!!
So I aborted.

Is it so bad that new releases are no longer posted with current Linux
distributions?
