When you press 'install' in the package editor, the following happens:
- The IDE calls 'make IDE OPT=-Cn' to compile the IDE (not the
LCL, not any component) without final linking. This is needed for
packages using the IDE sources directly. FPC will only recompile what
has changed.
- IDE compiles all changed packages
- IDE links the new IDE
- IDE restarts
I'll have to retest doing a visual component in Lazarus....

I developed several visual components for Lazarus and usually you install once and as you develop is not necessary to recompile the IDE, but are some exceptions:

1) The installed version crashes the IDE designer
2) You added a published event/property and wants to make a demo app that uses it through designer
