+To install FPC under Debian/Ubuntu
+==================================
+ Select the fpc.deb metapackage, which depends on a number of sub-packages
+ containing the compiler, the units and so on. The 'libc' unit provided by
+ FPC is included in the fp-units-i386.deb package, which is however marked
+ as "deprecated" by the Ubuntu package manager and is therefore *not*
+ installed by default using fpc.deb.
+
+ The following command will set up FPC under Ubuntu in order to be used with
+ fpGUI:
+
+ sudo apt-get install fpc fp-units-i386

+How to compile fpGUI
+====================
+ Please see the readme.txt file in the "src" directory.
