Re: corrupt dpkg "available" file?
Hi
Try
sudo dpkg --clear-avail && sudo apt-get update
Looks like a corrupted cache
Not sure about the second bit, are you trying to open a binary package
in gedit??

Re: [stupid question]Installing Lazarus Free Pascal & Others
Hi
I think you will find Lazurus is in the repositories
Open terminal, Type
Click on search - Lazurus, tick box, install
Always worth checking Synaptic first.
