Maybe you don't have the correct extra packages installed. > So does this mean that 3.0.0 doesn't have a working fpc for rpi 2? > What about rpi 1? > > I have both rpi 1 and 2 available, so let me know if I can help with > more testing.

We don't advertise that we support a particular model of a particular board with a particular Linux distribution and if so, under which conditions (which packages might be needed). That is up to the maintainers of those Linux distributions, and something we have no expertise about nor any control over. It is impossible to develop for Linux/ARM without familiarity with Linux and ARM development in general, especially if you want to use tools/packages that have not been built by the maintainers of your Linux distribution. This is regardless of which compiler/language you use.
