Then the bug is that "fpc" is not in the "bin" directory and that's what 
Jonas meant.

The normal installation structure on *nix systems is this:

PREFIX (e.g. "/", "/usr", "/usr/local" or a custom directory (I myself 
use "/mnt/data/applications/$fpcversion"))
   bin
     fpc
     fpcres
     (etc.)
   lib
     fpc
       2.6.2
         ppc386
         ppcx64
         (etc.)
         units
           i386-linux
           x86_64-linux
           (etc.)
       2.7.1
         (...)
   doc
     (...)
   share
     (...)
