FreePascal 3.0 officaily released! Here is a Linux build from svn script

[sysrpl]

For Linux (debian based distros) users here is a complete FPC 3.0 release + Lazarus from svn build script.

http://cache.getlazarus.org/download/linux/install-3.0.sh

To install, open a terminal and run these commands:

curl -L http://cache.getlazarus.org/download/linux/install-3.0.sh -o install.sh
sh install.sh

Update

I just updated the installers at:

http://www.getlazarus.org/setup/

They are now built with FPC 3.0. These installers place files within your home directory and do not needing any special rights to install.

Linux/Mac users can change the install folder by changing the $BASE variable at the top of the script.

Windows users can just pick a folder in the installer program.

Lazarus and FPC configurations are read from their own directories and wont interfere with other existing installations.

Look here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/freepascal/files/Win32/3.0.0/
You have to download two files from there - fpc-3.0.0.i386-win32.exe and fpc-3.0.0.i386-win32.cross.x86_64-win64.exe
First install win32 and then win64 cross compiler in the same path. Then you will have 64-bit compiler installed.

Yes. For a couple of weeks now. I already tried today and it worked fine.
