Set this to
/bin/bash -l home/bosse/dev/lazarus/2.0.8/startlazarus --pcp=/home/bosse/.lazarus_2.0.8 %f

and .profile will be read.

I have a similar issue, and that is how I solved it.

No, you must set the options on the desktop/menu entry that starts lazarus.

You must run lazarus not by directly running the startlazarus, but by
invoking the shell with -l option. You can create a script for it.
