=== Release-candidate builds for the 2.10.1 (bug-fix) release available === | |||
* [http://flightgear.simpits.org:8080/job/Mac-release/ Mac OSX] | |||
* [http://flightgear.simpits.org:8080/job/Windows-release/ MS Windows] | |||
* [http://flightgear.simpits.org:8080/job/Linux-release/ Linux] | |||
These are the first Windows releases produced automatically (Jenkins creates the installer) instead of via Curt, so please be on the look-out for anything that seems messed up / omitted. Based on very limited testing via a Windows VM everything seems sane and the apps run. | |||
The intention is that the quality of these builds is 'at least as good' as 2.10.0. If you find new bugs, that's fine, but unless they are regressions since 2.10.0 (which is unlikely, hopefully) then they should not block releasing; they can be fixed in a (hypothetical!) 2.10.2 or wait until 2.12. | |||
In particular the Windows builds include the UTF-8 pathname fix which is significant for various people. | |||
In general we're looking for 'yes the build works' or 'you've forgotten to include XYZ' feedback, not 'random shader bug 123 is still not fixed. | |||
So if there's a bug that is (still) troubling you, update its entry in the [http://flightgear-bugs.googlecode.com/ issue tracker], help with finding a test case, or fire up an editor and fix it. | |||
