Well, Juha in an earlier post seem to indicate that one should keep
Lazarus in ones home dir and use it from there too...
But he did not mention make install of course.
I needed that to get a way to make Lazarus visible on the start menu.

Anyway I now examined more and found that the install actually copied
970 MB worth of data to /usr/local/share/lazarus...
Probably the entire chunk of files.
