Indeed, apparently just starting lazarus is not enough. The problem is 
(at least) the includelinks.xml in the ~/.lazarus which does not have 
the necessary includes defined. This seems however to be solved when you 
run the demo form from within the lazarus ide. Mine is (after stopping 
lazarus) 1689 in stead of 98 bytes in size. Note with a correct 
includelinks.xml, you do not have to copy the lcl, leave it in the 
/usr/share/lazarus. Hope this helps.
