Hi, i've got some problems to install Lazarus on my system:
Dell inspiron 5150
P4 3.06 ghz
512 Mo Ram
OS:Fedora core 3
kernel: 2.6.12-1.1376_FC3

The fpc binary package (fpc-2.1.1-20050912.i586.rpm) is installed and
works fine.

When i try to install (as root) the fpc source package
(fpc-2.1.1-20050912.src.rpm) with
rpm -Uvh fpc-2.1.1-20050912.src.rpm, there's a warning (since my nux
box is'nt an english one, i'll try to translate as well as i can...)

Warning: fpcfan user does not exist -using root instead

Finaly in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/ there's the
fpc-2.1.1-20050912.source.tar.gz file.

But when i try to install lazarus-0.9.9-20050912.i586.rpm (rpm -Uvh
lazarus-0.9.9-20050912.i586.rpm)

there's an error:

error: Dependancies required
fpc-src = 2.1.1 is needed for lazarus-0.9.9-20050912.i586

You installed the wrong package:
Don't install: fpc-2.1.1-20050912.src.rpm
But do install: fpc-src-2.1.1-20050912.i586.rpm
