Same as for 3.0.0 and 3.0.2: /usr/lib/fpc/<version>/ What do you get when doing "dpkg -l | grep fpc"?

When using the graphical installer the installation showed a conflict error, but the package was installed successfully. dpkg -i fpc_3.0.4-rc1_amd64.deb >[...] > I am about to remove all vestiges of Lazarus and FPC from my system and > start over, but I really would like to know what is going wrong before I > do. :'( Probably the old 3.0.2 packages bite the new.
