Can you please repair the ftp.freepascal.org with the /pub contents?

Hey Alex,

You can always turn on the option to only use fpcup bootstrap compilers, over at the Setup+ button.

Cheers,
Gus

I think Bootstrappers should also be available on GitLab so FTP can be avoided.

Hey Olly,

That's an awesome idea!!

Since GitLab is now the home of all things source code of FPC/Lazarus, I think they should host the bootstrappers from there.

I'm guessing that paying for one less service would be a nice relief...

Cheers,
Gus
