[Lazarus] Trying to install Lazarus with fpc setup for debugging its libraries.

[Donald Ziesig]

I needed to compile fpc and the rtl and fpl libraries for debugging so I 
downloaded the sources from SourceForge.

I built fpc from the sources (with -gl flag for debugging - it runs) 
using the instructions in (modified for 3.0.4):
*http://wiki.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus#Installing_Free_Pascal_from_source_under_Linux.2FBSD*

which fpc
*fpc is /usr/local/bin/fpc**
**fpc is /usr/bin/fpc**
*

I can't install Lazarus from either:

ll lazarus*
*-rw-rw-r-- 1 donz donz 88M May 30 14:47 lazarus-project_1.8.4-0_amd64.deb**
**-rw-rw-r-- 1 donz donz 88M Jun  1 14:30 lazarus-project_1.8.4-0_amd64 
(1).deb*

The package installer say:

*Error: Dependency is not satisifiable: fpc(=3.0.4)|fp-compiler(=3.0.4)*

When I start fpc it says:

fpc -i
*Free Pascal Compiler version 3.0.4**
**
**Compiler date      : 2018/05/31**
**Compiler CPU target: x86_64**

etc.

I'm using Linux Mint 18.3.

Why doesn't the installer recognize fpc?  Where does it look for it?  
What am I missing?

Thanks,

Don
