Is there any reason why this page is not accessible? I would expect a list of packages, with some documentation perhaps...

There is indeed a wrong link in the main page. It should be fixed.
Mostly Lazarus trunk and FPC 3.2 on Manjaro Linux 64-bit.

In lazarus 'Other languages' page the spanish one is out of date, there is no more spanish forum alive.

Afaik in 1.0.x times a simple list and descriptions of packages were there.

It was horribly (as in 10 years+) outdated, a new list was compiled in the wiki as already linked to.

Handoko and others, thank you for your replies. Of course once you have fpc installed (and who doesnt) the rtl.pdf is quite useful although that seems to be a bit outdated too, e.g. on the Graph unit, shouldn't that be ptcgraph by now, which is available on Win as well as Linux.... (and I am using fpc on both platforms).
