Thank you for reporting this. I believe it ought to be fixed by
installing the second of these dependencies, listed in the HACKING
file:

  * The Free Pascal compiler ppc386 or ppcx64
    + Homepage: https://www.freepascal.org/
    + Ubuntu package: fp-compiler
  * The Free Pascal Free Component Library
    + Homepage: https://www.freepascal.org/fcl/fcl.var
    + Ubuntu package: fp-units-fcl
