Testing the compiler fails on fedora 23

Hi,

I succefully Installed the fpc version 3.0.0 from the repo
fpc-3.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm downloaded on sourceforge. For, I used the
"Yumex-dnf" app on fedora 23 with the linux kernel
4.4.6-300.fc23.x86_64.
Unfortunnatelly, testing the compiler with the file hello.pp gives the
following result:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i > fpc
helloFatal: Can t find unit system used by Hello_worldFatal:
Compilation abortedError: /usr/bin/ppcx64 returned an error exitcode
Then, I tried this other command as indicated in the documentation to
test the compiler:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i > fpc
-Fu/usr/lib64/fpc/3.0.0/units/x86_64-linux/rtl hellohello.pp(25,6)
Fatal: Can t find unit Interfaces used by Hello_worldFatal:
Compilation abortedError: /usr/bin/ppcx64 returned an error exitcode>
Thus, the test fails.
How to solve this problem?

The first case, create a /etc/fpc.cfg  or ~/.fpc.cfg with the proper
compiler config in it (this includes the -Fu line).

The second is missing unit Interfaces which is part of Lazarus' LCL,
not FPC proper.

It works fine!
