[Lazarus] Lazarus crashes on launch - Ubuntu

[Mick Arundell]

Hi Team

I've recently install Lazarus 1.8.2, fpc 4.0.4 using normal apt-get routines

Ubuntu is Linux wildone 4.15.0-46-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Wed Feb 6 
09:33:07 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

On launch an Access Violation message box jumps up "Access violation, 
Press OK to ignore and risk data corruption. Press Abort to kill the 
program"

Can anyone diagnose the problem for me or tell me how to find the fault 
please?

I inspected /etc/lazarus/environmentoptions.xml and found that this set 
of directories do not exist

         <Item1 Value="/usr/local/bin/fpc"/>
         <Item2 Value="/usr/bin/fpc"/>
         <Item3 Value="/opt/fpc/fpc"/>

I have already removed and reloaded several times. What should I do next?


Thank you in advance, Mick Arundell
