Problem installing Lazarus...

the PATH was not set :

Indeed. The makefiles use the fpc utility to figure out the platform they are running on. If the fpc utility cannot be found, the makefiles assume an i386 platform.
mischi:
When I encountered the problem, I simply symlinked ppcppc and named the link ppc386 with:
cd /pp/bin -- adjust this to the directory, where your programs live, such as /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin
ln -s ../lib/fpc/1.9.5/ppcppc ppc386 -- again, you have to adjust it to where your ppcppc lives.

When I try this, I get an error message:
tcsh: Bad : modifier in $ (/).
What do I need to do to fix this? TIA.
(I am mostly ignorant of these types of things; maybe others
are too. Wouldn't it be good if someone updated the makefile
to corect this issue?)

OK. I finally figured out I needed to use the 'sh' shell.
So (for anyone else as ignorant of these things as me), type:
$ sh
$ PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
$ make clean all
But after compiling, I get an error linking...
> Linking ./lazarus
> /usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -lglib-1.2.0
> lazarus.pp(98,1) Error: Error while linking
> make[1]: *** [lazarus] Error 1
> make: *** [ide] Error 2
What gives? What do I fix now? TIA
Vincent Snijders:
Did you install the gtk developement libraries? They make (on linux) the necessary symlinks.
If you already have glib-1.2.0.so installed, try:
make all OPT="-Fl/path/to/glib-1.2.0.so"
Please report the path you used, if successful. Maybe it can be added to the make file.
