Hi all!

I used Lazarus on Mandrake for a while and about a month ago I decided to
change to Xubuntu. Now lazarus doesn't work.

I installed FPC 2.0.2 following the alien method presented in this wiki
page:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/Installing_Lazarus#Another_way_to_install_Lazarus_under_Debian

This is what happen

* When I try to run "make clean all" to build lazarus the first thing I
notice is this message:
grep: /etc/ld.so.conf: No such file or directory

Ubuntu (and friends) don't come with a default /etc/ld.so.conf.  Not a
train smash - I think it is not needed for FPC anyway.  In any case,
you can create one and add the following lines into it.
-------------------
/usr/lib
/usr/local/lib
-------------------

For installation instructions, I used the following website.  Even
though it is for x64, I adapted the names for x32 and it worked fine.

If you had an existing installation of FPC and Lazarus, it is even
easier.  Copy the FPC and Lazarus directories to you new system.  Copy
your fpc.cfg file ( from /etc or from ~/ ) to the new system.  Double
check the paths in fpc.cfg.

You should be able to run Lazarus now, but might not be able to
compile in or any other project. You still need binutils, make and the
related *-dev packages (gtk1.2, gdk, pixbuf, etc)

I've installed binutils and binutils-static packages. Is binutils-dev needed
too?

You don't need the binutils-dev package.
I guess you can also search the mailing list for any Ubuntu related
posts.  The installation on Ubuntu has been covered a few times
already.
