The RPM installs everything at default places, which is recognized by the
IDE automatically. Also the IDE does some checks at startup and warns if the
basic paths look suspicious. So it is not an src path issue.
The error indicates that the interface unit was not compiled with the same
compiler version. Maybe he has installed the wrong lazarus rpm for the fpc
rpm. Anyway, this can be solved by using the lazarus src rpm and rebuilding
it, which he did.
