I think we should create different RPM's which all depend on eachother

fpc-compiler
fpc-rtl
fpc-fcl
fpc-gtk

and then you can depend lazarus on the needed rpm's. When everything works 
fine we can even create .rpm snapshots.

And .deb's ofcourse ;)

Except if they still choose to download the .tar.gz instead of the .rpm :)
