Package: fp-compiler
Version: 2.4.0-2
Severity: normal
When installing fp-compiler in a minimal system, it doesn't work,
because binutils is missing in the dependency info.
This was already reported here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=265265
many years ago, but the bug still persists.
I just installed a minimal system based on
debian-6.0.1a-i386-netinst and the bug is still there.
For a sample see ubuntu bug 790583.

As you can see in the Depends section, binutils is part of the dependency. You
are using a very old version 2.4.0 (a few years ago).

Description: Free Pascal - Compiler
The Free Pascal Compiler is an object pascal compiler supporting both Delphi
and Turbo Pascal 7.0
dialects as well as Mac pascal dialects. It provides a completely portable
RunTime Library (RTL)
available on many platforms and compatible with Turbo Pascal, but also a
platform independent class
based Free Component Library (FCL) adding many Delphi extensions and
interfacing many popular open
source libraries.
Some extensions are added to the language, like function overloading. Shared
libraries can be linked and
created. Delphi language extensions like classes, exceptions, ansi strings and
open arrays are also
supported.
This package contains the command line compiler.
