I just wanted to write up this problem I had when I installed a fresh
copy of the latest and greatest Ubuntu 9.10.

Problem #1: My package requirements script noticed that a few packages
weren't in their repository.  PixBuf-Dev being the most important one
not present in the 9.10 system.

So I downloaded and installed FPC and Lazarus from their trunks and
built them.  FPC had make install issues b/c the latest and greatest
FPC from 9.10 package system wrote symbolic links that weren't
overwritten by "make install" so I had to locate the symbolic link and
update my personal build script to replace that symbolic link.

Both FPC and Lazarus built even with some Debian packages (that I
always installed before 9.10).  I was concerned that pixbuf could not
be found but I kept going.

Problem #2: ./startlazarus executes and shows IDE.  But the second I
click File Open and Navigate to a folder that has my projects Lazarus
IDE throws

TApplication.HandleException Invalid floating point operation
  Stack trace:
  $00007FD2499BA2C2

I could use that Project 1 and even built and run it.  I just can't
navigate my way to open my existing projects.

The only way I can work with my projects is if I open them with
launching them as a parameter with ./startlazarus.
