I had the same error lately, and I thought the same
thing. 
registry.ppu is supposed to be at /usr/lib/fpc/1.0.10/units/linux/fcl.
See if it is there. Check if there is a stale registry.ppu in the
your_lazarus-dir/lcl/units. If so, remove this file, so the one in 
/usr/lib/fpc/1.0.10/units/linux/fcl will be found. It solved my problem
with fpc-1.0.10 on win32.

Vincent.
