The "Odyssey" of a programmer to Lazarus and Ubuntu Linux (Part one x64Bit)
===============================================================
------------Install Tools/Libraries-----------------------
open a "terminal" and execute:
1) “sudo apt-get update”
2) “sudo apt-get install alien”
3) "sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev"
4) "sudo apt-get install libgdk-pixbuf-dev"
5) "sudo apt-get install libgpmg1-dev"
------------Download Lazarus 64 Snapshots-----------------
from "http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/" with Firefox
1)lazarus-0.9.25-xxxxxxxx.x86_64.rpm
2)fpc-2.2.2-xxxxxxxx.x86_64.rpm
3)fpc-src-2.2.2-xxxxxxxx.x86_64.rpm
For sample:
lazarus-0.9.25-20080814.x86_64.rpm
fpc-2.2.2-20080814.x86_64.rpm
fpc-src-2.2.2-20080814.x86_64.rpm
and save these files to "/home" folder
------------Build “deb” files-----------------------------
open a terminal at /Home directory and execute
“sudo alien -c fpc-2.2.2*.rpm” (to build fpc-2.2.2-20080814_x86_64.deb)
“sudo alien -c fpc-src*.rpm” (to build fpc-src-2.2.2-20080814_x86_64.deb)
“sudo alien -c lazarus*.rpm” (to build lazarus-0.9.25-20080814_x86_64.deb)
yes,this takes long time....
------------install 3 new deb files ----------------------
open "Nautilus" and click on new deb files
1) fpc-2.2.2-20080814_x86_64.deb (to Install)
2) fpc-src-2.2.2-20080814_x86_64.deb (to Install)
3) lazarus-0.9.25-20080814_x86_64.deb (to Install)
after instalation
lazarus is at “/usr/lib/lazarus” directory
fpc is at “/usr/lib64/fpc/2.2.2” directory
fpc-src is at ”/usr/share/fpcsrc” directory
------------Rebuild Lazarus with GTK2 library ------------
Open Lazarus
"Applications>Programming>lazarus"
hit "ok" to Error Dialogs......
Set at Lazarus Menu>"Environment options/" "Files" page
Lazarus directory : /usr/lib/lazarus/
Compiler Path : /usr/lib64/fpc/2.2.2/ppcx64
FPC source directory: /usr/share/fpcsrc/
Build Lazarus
Mark to Lazarus Menu >"Tools>Configure build options>" "Advance Build Option" Page
Gtk2 –Checked
Starter -None
Examples-None
Click “save settings” button
Click on Lazarus menu >"Enviroment>Build Lazarus" to Finally Build Lazarus with GTK2 Library
After Build
set to Lazarus menu >"Enviroment>Editor Options>" "Display" Page
“Courier 10 Pitch” font ( I think is better now)
-----------Remove Lazarus/Fpc/Fpc-Source -------------------
If you want to remove all these
Open "System>Administrator>Synaptic Package Manager"
and Uncheck
fpc 2.2.2-xxxxxxxx
fpc-src 2.2.2-xxxxxxxx
