OpenOCD 0.9 seems less stable then openOCD 0.7

For some debugging I am using openOCD. I experimented with this tool before and in my experience version 0.7 is currently the best and most stable version. The combination openOCD 0.9 and arm-none-eabi-gdb leads to all sorts of segfaults, disconnected devices and other issues. None of these issues happen with OpenOCD 0.7. But the Arch Repo's are on 0.9, is this a deliberate choice? Or was the choice more like: newer is better? And can I get the 0.7 package from somewhere (maybe the AUR? I cant find it).

Arch devs tend to focus on providing the latest stable version,for openOCD that appears to be 0.9.0 .


You can find the final 0.7.0-3 PKGBUILD for OpenOCD here
