Hmm, this page is a big mess.
Ok, you are right, the "Getting Lazarus" page contains the hints for
installing binaries as well.
The "Installing Lazarus" should be renamed/splitted. It's confusing,
but maybe parts can be used.

Actually it's easy:
First install the standard ubuntu package of Lazarus. This will install
all dependencies.
Then follow the instructions on the Getting Lazarus page: download the
fpc, compile it and install it. Download lazarus svn, compile it, but
do not install it. Start the new lazarus.
