My observation is that fpcup is much used by novice pascal developers.
Those users appreciate the fact that fpcup gives them FPC and Lazarus in 
a breeze.
On nearly all available OS.

Could you please state your concerns more clearly.
I could add a warning or some extra instructions for the fpcup users, if 
necessary.
