Re: [lazarus] Error: Invalid Free Pascal Source Directory
Source files will be in /usr/share/fpc ... or somewhere close to that (you may have to dig around a little!) In general, Lazarus will be in the directory in which it is installed, fpc compiler will be in /usr/bin (or there will be a symbolic link from /usr/bin/ppc386 to /usr/(local)/lib/fpc/$version/..., make sure ppc386 is pointing to the correct version of the compiler), fpc units will be in /usr/lib/fpc/$version ... or /usr/local/lib/fpc/$version ... and fpc sources will be in /usr/share/fpc ...

Either try our ubuntu repository or download and install the fpc_src package from sf: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89339 The fpc_src package installs the sources to /usr/share/fpcsrc.

The IDE searches the FPC sources, which is provided by a package called fpc-src. As ubuntu user, you can use: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Getting_Lazarus#Getting_Lazarus_from_our_Ubuntu_repository Then you will get the current fpc 2.2.0 too (instead of the old 2.0.4).
