Familiar v0.8.4-rc3 is now available. This is the second release candidate for v0.8.4. Although this release candidate comes with many improvements, it is not yet considered a stable release. Please use the current stable release v0.8.2 if you want to be on the safe side.
Please enter bugs in v0.8.4-rc3 into Handhelds.org Bugzilla. Here is a handy link for creating a Familiar v0.8.4-rc3 bug report if you have trouble deciphering which component to submit a bug report against.
To get more information on the Familiar distribution, and the Familiar project in general, see the Familiar [project page].
See the installation guide.
Upgrading to v0.8.4-rc3 is currently not recommended, since the upgrade path is not fully tested. Upgrading will work with the final v0.8.4 release.
If you want to help testing the upgrade path, make sure to upgrade ipkg before anything else:
ipkg update && ipkg install ipkg && ipkg upgrade
There have been several release candidates but no final release for v0.8.3. Upgrading to v0.8.4 from one of those release candidates will therefore not be supported.
