I found lazarus in this location:
/usr/lib/lazarus/0.9.28.2
I have downloaded the component zip file into my Downloads directory.
Then I have extracted the contents, which created a new directory:
Downloads/Sdpo
But when I try to do as directed (move Sdpo folder into lazarus
components folder) I get a "permission denied" error. :-(
Why is that? And how do you go about installing the components if you
are not allowed to put the files where they belong???
just like on windows (finally!), you have to be root to do things in "protected"
areas... this means that you have to log in as root or use sudo to gain root
privileges... once you have root privileges, then you can copy those files and
directories over there as you need to do ;)
