It does. You might however have picked the wrong meaning of the word "stable"

Hi Saint,

I do ! :)
But experiences with other embedded systems
(mainly Centipad, Beaglebone and Beaglebone black)
gave me the impression, that compiling the same cross
compiler toolchain on two systems can -- even by using
the same software versions -- let to different results.
Better safe than sorry...

So...is there a difference in stability between the so called stable version
and the current development version?
And: If the current is more stable than the stable one...why not to release
a new stable version then?

Best regards,

We've been meaning to release a new stable build for a year now.

The builds we distribute are actually compiled by individual user and developer machines via our build system. If you use our toolchain you should build the same as everyone else.

mcc01:
Ok, I see...

I will carefully recompile everything and may be I am able then
to pinpoint the problems I have...with the kind help of this forum may be :)

Thanks again for help and understanding !

Best regards,
mcc
