Failed to install LNET on Raspberry Pi

I have tried to install LNET on my Raspberry Pi, as I need a non-
blocking TCP server port. I downloaded the installation, and unzipped
it to the lazarus/0.9.30.4/components directory. I then opened the
Package/Open package file (.lpk) menu option, navigated to
lazaruspackage/lnetvisual.lpk and selected Yes when it asked about
rebuilding. It failed with a

Can't create assembler file:
/usr/lib/lazarus/0.9.30.4/components/lnet/lazaruspackage/lib/arm-
linux/lcommon.s

I then selected "compile" on the packages dialog, which took forever,
and then install, and the component palette included the lNet
components. I placed a TLtcpComponent on a form, hit compile, and it
failed again, with almost the same message. (the file was lclnet.s).

Is there something else I should be doing to prevent these errors?

No idea really except:
1. Lazarus 0.9.30 is very old. Maybe upgrading helps (if that's easily
possible)
2. Have you installed the required dependcies (build-essential,
assembler etc that Lazarus/FPC needs?)
3. Have you searched this forum and the lnet wiki page for similar
issues and solutions on raspberry pi?
