[Pkg-pascal-devel] Bug#1104749: Installing "Lazarus (4.0)" via GUI does not install Lazarus

[asciiwolf at seznam.cz]

Package: lazarus-ide-4.0
Version: 4.0~rc3+dfsg-3

"Lazarus (4.0)" installed using GNOME Software or KDE Discover does no 
launch and returns a "Can't find the lazarus executable /usr/lib/lazarus/
4.0/lazarus".

That's because the lazarus-ide-4.0 package that gets installed is only a 
data package that requires other lazarus packages in order to work 
correctly. However, since the Lazarus desktop file is in this package, it is
detected by the AppStream metadata generator as the main package.

Please, either move the desktop file to the correct package or change the 
lazarus-ide-4.0 package dependencies to depend on the required packages.

Also, the desktop icon seems to be missing (not displayed on the "Lazarus 
(4.0)" desktop entry), but that is a different problem.
