I am definitely not a linux expert. Where do I get all the packages that I need to install this version of lazarus?

I had the same problem when I tried to install Lazarus on Ubuntu
Mate 18.04.  I ended up installing it using the Synaptic Package
Manager because I would get the same error that you got when I
tried to install it from either the .deb files or via the regular
Ubuntu Software application.  I made sure I had all possible
source and binary options selected for installation.  It worked
perfectly when I did it that way.  
Hope this helps.


Bye,
Barbara

lazarus-project_1.8.2-0_amd64.deb. 



The laptop has Linux Mint 18.2, and the desktop has Linux
17.2. I have uninstalled previous lazarus versions, and have
tried to completely remove all associated files, both using
Synaptic Package Manager and also chasing down each file and
deleting them. Still, on both machines, when I try to install
fpc.3.0.4-2, I get the following error: "errpr: breaks
existing package fpc conflict 'fpc()'. On the laptop I even
did a complete disc-cleaning installation of linux mint 18.2,
and repeated the process. Still get the error.  What do I need
to do, now that I have two computers with no operating lazarus
versions?

You can ignore that error message.
Proceed to install the lazarus deb.

I will see if I can create a fpc deb without that error.

Better file a bug report on Linux Mint or Ubuntu, then.
