Hi,

As a new Linux user with Ubuntu 9.04, I am trying to install Lazarus.

I am becoming totally confused. Can somebody explain in simple steps, exactly what I need to do, including the installation of any required packages. I have looked on the list but all the instructions seen to assume that the reader is an experienced Linux user.

Thanks for your help.

Brian
