Missed directories after installing Lazarus

I installed Lazarus Free Pascal to try and figure out it, but when I
ran it I found a problem that a configure window of Lazarus searching
for "rtl" directory and don't find it, also a "fpcsrc" directory
"/usr/share/fpcsrc/3.0.4/" was mentioned and I searched for it and I
didn't find it at that mentioned location.

I installed Lazarus by command mentioned in this page:
https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Install_on_Ubuntu


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 apt-get
install lazarus 
My OS is Linux Mint

I don't know, but try

Code: Text  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i apt-get
install fpcapt-get install fpc-src

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 apt-get
install fpc works and lazarus-ide works now.

For 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 apt-get
install fpc-src I have this message from terminal:

QuoteReading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

Package fpc-src is not available, but is referred to by another
package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  fpc-source-3.0.4

E: Package 'fpc-src' has no installation candidate

Some previous versions of Ubuntu were known to have problem with
Lazarus installation. I haven't tested seriously but recent versions
seem okay to me, I'm using Ubuntu Mate 20.04 and Lazarus 2.0.10.

Do you use Ubuntu? If yes, I believe it should be easier for you to
install Lazarus from deb files. On the wiki page you mentioned on the
first post, there you can find the link to Install on Ubuntu from .deb
files.

Did you first do an apt-get update? I'm not saying it's /the/ answer
in the current case but that fixes a substantial proportion of that
type of problem.

What that is basically telling you is that the package is not named:
fpc-src but fpc-source, so do:
Code: Bash  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i apt-get
install fpc-source and you're done, at least with respect to
completing your install. But that shouldn't be needed: installing
Lazarus should have pulled also all the needed dependencies, including
the compiler and its sources.

Anyway, Handoko is right: you'll be better off downloading and
installing (e.g. using GDebi) the official packages from  lazarus-
ide.org; if nothing else you'll at tleast get the latest releases of
everything.

Definitely worth checking with  apt-cache search -n fpc  in that case.
