IF that was meant to be "Why"
They do not behave the same.
If you rebuild lazarus, and you are NOT admin/root, then you may not have filesystem permission to write Lazarus exe to the original location. So the new IDE will be in a new location, and the old one be kept.
Startlazarus will then start the new one. Lazarus will still star the old.
Of course, if you are admin/root or your installation is in a place where you do have permission, then both may work.
Startlazarus may also be needed internally for restarting the IDE...
ok, so in Linux, there is no need to have "startlazarus".

I did not say that. And by default there is.
Default =
- you are not root
- installed in /usr/local/...
ok, thanks

Actually startlazarus just starts lazarus (as its name implies), you can see the source code yourself
