I am still here, day three and I am still looking for the compiler

not happy with /usr/local/lib/fpc/2.0.4/units/i386-linux/rtl/
which is where locate system.ppu says it is, the FPC source
directory The fpc.cfg says :
Fu/usr/local/lib/fpc/$fpcversion/units/$fpctarget
-Fu/usr/local/lib/fpc/$fpcversion/units/$fpctarget/*
-Fu/usr/local/lib/fpc/$fpcversion/units/$fpctarget/rtl
That's good. It just contains no sources.
What is wrong?
The 'FPC source directory' is a directory, where you put the
FPC sources. It contains for example the file compiler/version.pas.
You have to download them separately or install the debian package
fpc-src.

I found the Debian site and there are fifteen .DEB files, none with
fpc.src
(http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/fpc/dist/i386-linux-2.0.4/deb/)
which one do I want? Not all I hope?
Here are the packages including lazarus and fpc-src:

Yes, normally you install all of them. There are so many fp- packages,
because of the debian policy. If lazarus wants to join the official
debian repository, then the lazarus deb must be split into dozen
packages too.
But since you already have everything but the FPC sources, you only
need the fpc-src package or follow the instructions on this page:

Well I went to the site. It told me I need something called 'SVN'. I
went to another site and after about three screens I downloaded SVN. It
seemed to install itself but when I typed 'SVN', it could not be found.
Back to the FreePascal site, it said to go to the 'parent directory of
my development area' ???
Then it wanted 'SVN Checkout etc' but SVN does nothing, how can it
possible download anything??
Then I have to do an 'update'!!
And of course there are the 'fixes' just in case I get bored.
Why is it all so complicated? Why can't the source be part of the
FreePascal package and just be installed with everything else?
I must confess my introduction to Linux and all its little tricks is not
winning the war!
But than you for your patience, I am convinced I have done something
really stupid somewhere and it is coming back to bite me....
