Hello,

There are some critical bugs in fpc 3.0 which are already fixed. So, why the 3.0.2 version was not released yet? Do you have any estimate about when it will be released?

Best regards

My guess is that RC1 will be released between the end of August and mid September, and the final release somewhere in October.

As we are already in November, do you have a new estimate?

FPC 3.0 was released exactly a year ago: http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,30529.0.html Over a year is a very long time for a bug fix release. Will it happen this year? There is a month + few days left. There was a documentation tool issue holding it back. It can be fixed later. FPC 3.0.2 should be released ASAP.

Your information is outdated.
The documentation issue was fixed a long time ago. We're waiting for the buildmaster to start.

Michael.

The files and branch have been prepared since june. Maintainers can build their RC1s.

I haven't had time for FreeBSD builds yet, partially because I had some virtualbox trouble setting up fbsd11. (don't update VB if you are using FreeBSD)
