Then I examined what had happened and I found that the install script
had copied a number of files including lazarus executables to
/usr/local/share/lazarus and the symlinks in /usr/local/bin were
pointing to these executables effectively decoupling the lazarus
installation in the /home/pi tree from use!
That is the intention.
So in essence what could be done to install Lazarus in Raspbian Jessie
is to use the make install command as su but then adjust it by
changing the symlinks back to the true installation directory in the
home tree.
Usually that is NOT what you want in a default install.
Well, Juha in an earlier post seem to indicate that one should keep
Lazarus in ones home dir and use it from there too...
It depends on the intention.
"make install" is intended to install something system-wide. That is it's
function.
In this case, you must copy all files.
If you just want a private copy of Lazarus to appear in your menu, this is
another intention.
It's probably easier to configure the menu yourself, or easier yet, create an
icon on the desktop.
