Maybe you can try to install Lazarus using the deb files.

It says:
"Astra Linux is considered a recognized Debian derivative ..."

So, download from - https://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/Laz
arus%20Linux%20amd64%20DEB/Lazarus%202.0.2/ and install?

In the case of Astra linux:
If it is running on an Elbrus processor only the X86 instruction set
is likely to be supported. There is no FPC back end for Linux compiled
for Elbrus ISA, but there is for Linux compiled for Elbrus' X86 
compatible ISA mode. In that case, install from apt. Both
architectures are supported by Elbrus, but only the X86 version will
work. Astra linux was developed specifically for the Elbrus.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elbrus_2000 and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astra_Linux

FPC should run on Astra linux for linux-x86_64 (also on Elbrus X86
mode) and ARM. The S390 and Elbrus_2000 instruction sets are not
supported.

BTW: If somebody knows how to obtain an Elbrus 2000 based board in the
Netherlands, I would be very interested, because of its security
features, especially dynamic pointer validity verification.
