[Slackbuilds-users] Tests updating Lazarus to version 3.0

[Antonio Leal]

Hello all,

I checked all dependencies of new shiny Lazarus 3.0

lazarus
├ cqrlog  (Gustavo Conrad <gus3963 gmail>)                              
             --> builds ok and starts
├ ddrescueview  (Jeremy Hansen <jebrhansen+SBo at gmail.com>)        --> 
builds ok and starts
├ *doublecmd-qt5 * (Hao Chi Kiang <no at no.noooo.ooo>)                  
         --> *LazUTF8Classes were deprecated* and now are removed from 
Lazarus 3.0. This breaks doublecmd-qt5 slackbuild
├ easymp3gain  (Chernov V. V. <manbornofwoman at gmail.com>)           --> 
builds ok and starts
├ transgui  (Jeremy Hansen <jebrhansen+SBo at gmail.com>)                  
--> builds ok and starts
└*winff * (Vijay Marcel <vijaymarcel at outlook.com>) --> *fails in link*


So doublecmd-qt5 and winff don't build with new Lazarus.

What is the SlackBuilds policy in this situation?

a) Stay with current Lazarus 2.2.6 and hope that all packages will 
eventually build correctly? Who keeps checking this and how?

b) Notify maintainers and upgrade Lazarus to 3.0 anyway?

c) Other?

Thanks for the hints

Happy new year

António
