This is true, only because remote debugging is not well supported.

In fact I sometimes to programs to be run on a headless system (e.g. a NAS) Here you can't install Lazarus, because you don't have a GUI.

You easily can install fpc and compile native, though.

So I ended up testing the software on a PC (as far as possible without the hardware) and finally compile it on the target system.

I did not bother to install the cross compiler (the problem here is not fpc itself, but the cross-libraries that are necessary link the project for the target system).

If I would be able to use Lazarus on the development system to remote-debug the target system, the effort to install the complete cross-compile infrastructure would be viable.
