Ubuntu provide what they call a PPA, free to anyone who registers, to
make software available to Ubuntu and its derivatives users.  Once
someone has added a PPA to their computer sources list, apt will look
in the PPA for newer releases of a package.

I have established a PPA for my app and, in the process, needed to
setup a current FPC and Lazarus PPA as the ones in both U18.04 and
U20.04 are too old.  So, while setup for my use, anyone wanting to use
FPC320 and Lazarus 2.0.10 on their own PPA (or even on their own
computer) can do so from
https://launchpad.net/~d-bannon/+archive/ubuntu/bluesky

Note, I have disabled the Qt5 stuff in U18.04, too hard to update the
libqt5pas within the PPA system.
