I tried to get fpreport installed. I tried to install from the
component library but I get a compile error on the fpreport in the
uses section that it is not found. Also tried to install it from
fpcupdeluxe but it fails also with the same message:
D:\fpcupdeluxe\lazarus\components\fpreport\cfgfpreportimageexport.pp(2
4,42) Fatal: (10022) Can't find unit fpreport used by
cfgfpreportimageexport

Am I missing something?

Actual ther ars some issue with fpreport. Only fixed in trunk.

One working soloution is win32 Laz 20 fixes with fpc32 fixes. in 64 it
was/is not aktivated in fpc. So Lazarus cannot found the needed ppu's.
you can look if you find a director fcl-fpreport with the needed
ppu's. if it is missing, fpc was not compiled with fpreport.

I don't understand. Not activated? You mean that the ppu should be
part of the Lazarus install? I'm running 64bits, so it looks like the
requirements are not there.

fpreport is a part of FPC not Lazarus. So the packagemenagement of FPC
is responsible. To test if your installation is working with a 64 bit
installtion of Lazarus/FPC, install
lazarus\components\fpreport\design\lazfpreportdesign.lpk and  open
lazarus\components\fpreport\design\reportdesign.lpr and try to compile
for 64 bit Lazarus.

With win32 Lazarus/FPC it works out of the box. On a 64 bit
installation of FPC some units are not compiled/installed (the ppu's
are missing).

Ah. Compiling fails unfortunately. Will try to find the missing file.
