Ok, so this brings me to the starting point :-) I did a test. If I run just
startlazarus --pcp=~/.lazarus
it starts properly ,because it reads
/etc/lazarus/environmentoptions.xml, but this file is not supposed to be
there because it is installed and setup for another Lazarus installation.

But if /etc/lazarus/environmentoptions.xml does not exist (as if I has
not installed Lazarus from  Ubuntu repositories) , I get back to the
TFPCSourceCache.Update problem. On a fresh install no primary or
secondary config file is supposed to be there. I compiled Lazarus
with-dVerboseFPCSrcScan but I did not noticed new lines in the output.
