ORCA Binaries

Orca can always be built from source, but because we follow the philosophy of ‘commit early, commit often’ you will be getting potentially unstable versions. Below is a list of versions that have been used under production conditions and are thought to be relatively stable. This does not mean that they are bug-free. ORCA is a very complex application and often errors are not found right away. If you have trouble, it is often useful to grab an older version to help sort out whether the problem is a hardware or software issue. Bugs should be reported to the development team when found -- if we don’t know about the problem, we can’t fix it.
