On my LinuxMint I have Lazarus installed (built from source) in my home folder and I can add search paths to any of the packages regardless the origin of the package (came with Lazarus or created/added by myself).
I think that you installed FPC and Lazarus via the package manager of your system. In this case the directory of Lazarus binaries, libraries and sources are not writeable for you (including the package configurations). In the pas a solved this with changing (recursive) the group id (to mine) for the directories belonging to FPC and Lazarus and giving write premissions. You can add write premissions to "other" but it has security risk. BUT I recommend to install lazarus into your home directory by building it from sources. 2015-08-04 16:44 keltezéssel, Larry Dalton írta: > How do I add a search path for packages in linux mint?
