Is there a Date for an os4 bugfix release?

Nobody knows except Hyperion, but Christmastime is approaching and IMHO they would be quite foolish if they missed that opportunity and didn't release anything.

The Window Class bug densho is experiencing is an original ClassAct bug that had gone unnoticed for decades before Enhancer software exposed it. It's fixed now but so far unreleased. The workaround xenic has described is currently the only way to suppress the bug.

@xenic

Thanks, it's working now!

@trixie

Thanks, lets hope and wait for the "worshipping the tree" festivities, then

Updater Issues

AmiPDF - trying to use Updater to download v1.37, but error message "AmiPDF is missing on server" pops up so it cannot be installed.

Information button only displays text for a couple of entries for enhancer 1.4 software, and all the rest are blank

@derfs

The latest version should be 1.40 (5.9.2018)

Considering they've just released the OS 3.1.4 update, getting an OS4.1 update out of door soon would make every sense. Amigans usually expect something to happen around Christmastime, so it's a good idea to have an actual product to offer. Also, releasing two OS updates within a short time span would improve Hyperion's track record in delivering stuff.

@trixie

Sure, that sounds logical and it would be a great thing, but history shows that christmas time doesn't mean there will be releases.
Announcements, yes, but releases...

And AmigaOS3.1.x is maintained by a different team...which, if i'm not wrong, is working pretty much only on backporting, enhancing and fixing 68k stuff, so no real help for the PPC version(?)

Of course - I've never put the two products in relation, I don't think any code is shared between them. But there are quite a few fixes already available in beta for OS4.1, and these would be worth releasing finally.

@trixie

I see, i'm waiting for a few annoying bugs to be fixed myself

@Raziel

The decision regarding an updated release seems to be whether to wait and include a version for Tabor as well or release for the other machines without a Tabor version .

@Spectre660

Waiting any longer would scare away all of those not-betatesters that kept on waiting for some years now.

So i really hope they leave out Tabor for the upcoming release and just roll it out finally.

I mean, it's not like it costs them any more money to release a Tabor specific revision inbetween the big updates...

Would be nice to get an updated AmigaOS 4.x .
The previous release periods have been December,January or April.
So a few more months to go .

@RIBDEVIL

I'm the only one with enhancer pack 1.4 updater crash?

@RIBDEVIL

What is your Updater version and what is this crash ?

@zzd10h

O updated from the last enhancer pack v1.4.
After the update, the updater program give me a Grim Reaper and the system hangs at all.

I restore the old files, but the error persists.

@RIBDEVIL
