FYI, apparently FPC works with MIPS through cross-compiling but
Lazarus does not, based on this:
 http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,30500.msg194153.html
MIPS will be important in future. I may get a MIPS gadget myself for testing.

It would be nice to have a maintainer who builds FPC binaries for
MIPS. Who volunteers? Maybe you? :)

You're right that Debian does not package a MIPS build of FPC. If you  
want to use it, you'll indeed have to build it yourself through  
cross-compiling (and/or file a request with Debian to also build and  
package FPC for MIPS).

However, there is no MIPS build.  To build fpc executables for MIPS, I have
to do cross-compiling?​

The experimental repository​

​contains a file
fpc_3.0.0+dfsg-1_all.deb
​which is only 38Kb, and is for "all" architecture.

As a matter of fact, I usually get the latest version of fpc from the
download site of Lazarus.

The reason I ask is that I expect to get non-intel architecture (armhf,
mips etc.) builds of fpc-3.​

Thanks!

It's already in the Debian experimental repository: 
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=names&keywords=fpc


You will have to ask the Debian/Ubuntu project when they plan to include 
it in which release.

Hi There,

Just curious, will the freshly release FPC 3 be included in the current or
next release of debian/ubuntu repository?

Thanks!
