I suggest that Lazarus site shows this info about these needed APT packages.

Hi!

The messages "crti.o not found" and "crti.n not found" tells that your gcc is not uptodate.

Before you continue make an update of your system:

Code: Bash  [Select][+][-]

Since when does Lazarus require 7zip, ncurses, wxWidgets, and Haskell? Haskell???
Who has made this list? Is this a joke?

Normally on a virgin *buntu box I just need gtk-2something-dev and if I want to build qt5 I also need libqt5pas1-dev. Not much more than that.

And to deploy my applications (with Qt5) I just need to install libqt5pas1 (without "-dev"), this pulls in everything that is needed.

The messages "crti.o not found" and "crti.n not found" tells that your gcc is not uptodate.

I found this on one of my colleagues machines caused by an outdated fpc.cfg, it pointed to a non existing directory (version numbers in directory name changed), probably due to an OS update long after fpc has been installed.
