The RPM and deb's are generated if there is enough interest
Looking at
http://www.freepascal.org/down/x86_64/linux-ftp.freepascal.org.var the
rpm is already there.
Ubuntu/MInt users should have the 'alien' tool in their repositories
which can easily create a usable .deb file from a .rpm

If you look carefully, you'll see the 64-bit 2.4.4 .deb releases are not even
generated. {in ftp.hu.freepascal.org}
Good point. In addition to the Debian packages I mentioned earlier there
is a complete single file tar-ball here for x86_64

fpc_2.4.4-0_all.deb is just a meta package and needs a repository to pull in
the other packages. Hence my earlier suggestion + quick fix to "upgrade"
ftp://ftp.hu.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/dist/2.4.4/i386-linux/deb/ to a
depository. But nobody seems to be interested...

If folks prefer to stick with
ftp://ftp.hu.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/dist/2.4.4/i386-linux/deb/
then fpc_2.4.4-0_all.deb is probably the [single meta]package to install.
A readme file in the folder clearly explaining that would be helpful.

Well, one would hope the average developer would be a bit farther
along the learning curve than the average
