Did you try to contact the maintainer of the lazarus package about this? Maybe it could be split out into a separate package, or maybe also put that stuff in the lazarus-src package? If it is only about a single file, it might also make sense to just ship it with nbc. Maybe also upstream has some clues whether lazarus is really the only way to go. Further, many files lack license headers. Bother upstream to fix this, otherwise this is not distributable. And, well, please add a clean target to the Makefile, otherwise your package cannot be build twice in a row or the like. Best, Michael
