apt-get install fpc lazarus fails on Raspberry Pi

apt-get install fpc lazarus fails with “fpc : Depends: fpc-2.6.0 (= 2.6.0-9+rpi1) but it is not going to be installed” on Raspberry Pi

Evidently, something has been changed recently in Raspbian making  it impossible to install FPC or Lazarus. From what I can tell, it seems to be the inclusion of a package called binutils-gold.

After spending time researching the problem, I found the answer here:

The solution is pretty simple. Using the editor of your choice edit the sources.list file:

sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list

Now add the line:

deb http://plugwash.raspbian.org/wsf wheezy-wsf main

Save source.list, apt-get update and you should be good to go:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install fpc
sudo apt-get install lazarus
