[fpc-devel] 3.0.0~rc1 in Debian

[Edmund Grimley Evans]

3.0.0~rc1 has arrived in Debian experimental, but has failed to build
on several architectures:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=fpc&suite=experimental

Debian applies various patches, of course, but I was able to reproduce
the i386 failure on Debian unstable with the upstream source, and I've
suggested a solution here:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=800811

The error on armhf is weird. Click on "Build-Attempted" in the
appropriate line to see the full log. The error is:

flt_pack.inc(119,5) Error: Syntax error while parsing a conditional compiling expression

Can anyone say what the problem is there?
