Lazarus 0.9.30 released

[DirkS]

Ok, both are NOT different, identical, only dates differ.
ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/lazarus/snapshots/Lazarus-0.9.30.1-31190-fpc-2.4.4-20110613-win32.exe
vs
ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/lazarus/snapshots/Lazarus-0.9.31-31188-fpc-2.4.4-20110613-win32.exe

The first one is 0.9.30 + fixes (the 'fixes' branch). The second is the latest trunk version (which can have bug fixes + new features + new bugs)
These two are using the latest FPC release (2.4.4).

I understand, bug fixes + new features + new bugs (maybe)
ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/lazarus/snapshots/Lazarus-0.9.31-31241-fpc-2.5.1-20110616-win32.exe

This one also uses the cutting edge (or trunk) FPC compiler. Again: bug fixes + new features + new bugs...

Gr.
Dirk.

God thank you developers for doing such a great job with Lazarus ! And im soo thankful for developers of FreePascal too . Thanks you pascal/delphi is still alive and can be used on many operating systems .

Are there any plans to update the Ubuntu repository with the latest version?

Thanks.

It depends on maintainer. I see that 0.9.30 is in Oneiric repo:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/en/oneiric/lazarus-0.9.30

Thanks, Fabien. I realised that my problem is that I am still on Lucid.

I downloaded the debian tar packages from Sourceforge and unpacked them with Archive Manager. By trial and error I learned that lazarus-doc-0.9.30_0.9.30-0_all.deb should be intalled first ($ sudo dpkg -i lazarus-doc-0.9.30_0.9.30-0_all.deb), then lazarus-src-0.9.30_0.9.30-0_all.deb.

Some of the necessary packages are not in the download, so I am going to reinstall the old version to get those packages and install the debian packages on top of that.

Here is how i install:

extract fpc tar gz and do:

Here are the dependencies:

For Lazarus, the same:

Then with the lazarus tar gz, do the same:

I uninstalled the old FPC and old Lazarus, then installed new FPC from debian packages, then installed all the 0.9.30 lcl packages as well as 0.9.30 lazarus-doc and lazarus-src packages successfully.

When I tried to install lazarus-ide-gtk2-0.9.30, Gdebi said it depends on lazarus-ide-0.9.30. When I tried to install lazarus-ide-0.9.30, it said it depends on lazarus-ide-gtk-0.9.30. But lazarus-ide-gtk-0.9.30 is not in the download.

[TurboRascal]

That's strange, I did have that deb in the tarball I downloaded... It won't install on Ubuntu Lucid anyway, since it depends on a libgdk which doesn't exist in Lucid's repo.

Which one, lazarus-ide-gtk-0.9.30 or lazarus-ide-gtk2-0.9.30?

It won't install on Ubuntu Lucid anyway, since it depends on a libgdk which doesn't exist in Lucid's repo.

Even if it is not in the repo, could it still be installed from elsewhere?

[TurboRascal]

Ah yes sorry, I meant gtk2. AFAIK, gtk IDE is deprecated and not included, I guess you should compile it yourself.
