The FPC sources are a big collection supporting more than 20 targets. Only the 'install' knows what files belong to the current target and this changes constantly. Lazarus would need to emulate the install process to find out which sources are the right one. Of course you can write some rules to support a common subset of sources for some common targets. If someone wants to write and maintain that, it can be added. > Making .rpm package feels little useless because all the needed files are > already in my computer and then I would install the package into this same > computer. > > An extra complication is that this is not debian/ubuntu/fedora/redhat but > this > is OpenSuse. Fedora packages would most likely work but I can't be sure. OpenSuse packages work the same. Only the gtk packages have different names. But I don't have an OpenSuSE to test, so I don't maintain the script for this. > Anyway, it is not a big problem.

You can use the last released, the current release candidate or the current developer version of fpc. > OpenSuse advertised their build servers which should make it easier to build > and deliver packages for every Suse user.

If someone finds out, and it is easy enough I can adapt the script to support OpenSuSE.
