For practical reason it has always been the better way to install fpc and lazarus per user, not globally in the systems /usr/local tree.

what would it take for the various *nix flavor maintainers to fix their install scripts so that FPC and/or Lazarus were installed in this manner? it would definitely fix a lot of headaches when it comes to installing the prepared release packages...
