To install fpc you should have the Universe repository enabled. From command line, you can do this and then install the application as shown below:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) universe"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install fpc

Source How do I enable the “Universe” repository from the command line?

Synaptic Package Manager is a good graphical package manager, if you might want to give it a try!
