Very wisely, Felipe suggested that instead of trying and apply all
fixes and/or enhancements which appear reasonable, we should
concentrate on what's actually needed.
I can understand the problem. It's because laz 9.25 has so many bug
fixes, enhancements and improvements, even some are on basic level (file
names, folder structures, etc). Those make maintaining a fix branch
become so hard, though it's not impossible. Besides, this is our first
attempt to provide a fix branch. ;)
User requests are therefore welcome. If possible (i.e. if fixes can be
either directly applied or backported with a reasonable confidence)
they'll be honored.
I request for PNG support and fcl-db improvement to be
applied/backported from fpc 2.2.1+2.3.1 and laz 9.25.
What fcl-db things are you missing in 0.9.24.1, if you compile it with
fpc 2.3.1? What Lazarus revisions do you request to be merged?
Or, I have another idea though it sounds pretty crazy. We speed up 9.25
to release 9.26. Before the release, make sure 9.26 somehow is more fix
branch friendly. So, next fix branch can be maintained in easier way. ;)
Maybe this sounds crazy, but the only way I see to make the 0.9.26 more
fix branch friendly is to stop development on 0.9.27.
