Have you tried to perform a clean installation? Such IDE starting
error can usually fixed by removing Lazarus with all its configuration
files and install again.

You can use the commands as suggested by Thaddy in this thread:
http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,33525.0.html

Alternatively, I prefer to use Synaptic Package Manager to perform
complete removal and installation. This is a handy tool, it can show
you dependencies and broken packages which hinder some application to
install correctly.

Or perhaps you can try to obtain the installation files directly from
Lazarus download link:
http://www.lazarus-ide.org/index.php?page=downloads
You need to download and install all three packages as mentioned on
the download page.

I ever experienced application that won't be able to installed on my
Ubuntu Mate pc even I follow the instruction correctly. But a simple
computer restart fix the issue.

I have this same problem and I just installed the latest Lazarus from
the Linux Mint 20 software manager.  Should I remove the package and
reinstall?   Why would doing this a second time work when the first
didn't?

The .deb packages provided by Lazarus project are more recent than the
ones from Mint.
Apparently the Mint packages are also broken somehow.

Thanks!  I'll search for the .deb files.  I hope when I uninstall the
Linux Mint version it doesn't leave stuff that interferes with the new
.deb file version.
