BlueGriffon

Old BlueGriffon Versions

This BlueGriffon archive documents software packages that preceded the current release. Its version records include 3.0.1, compared with 3.1 on the main page.

Keeping these records on a dedicated page makes the distinction between historical and current software explicit. It also preserves filenames and platform labels that can be useful when checking an old installation, documenting a migration, or identifying a package retained in an offline archive.

BlueGriffon Version Archive

BlueGriffon's historical inventory currently records 4 files and 1 release label. Those labels are 3.0.1, with package rows covering Ubuntu Linux, OS X, 32-bit Windows Installer, and 64-bit Windows Installer.

Among the archived files are bluegriffon-3.0.1.Ubuntu16.04-x86_64.tar.bz2, bluegriffon-3.0.1.mac-x86_64.dmg, bluegriffon-3.0.1.win-i686.exe, and bluegriffon-3.0.1.win-x86_64.exe. The package set uses TAR.BZ2, DMG, and EXE formats, providing a practical way to match an old record with the type of package originally distributed.

• Archived versions: 3.0.1.
• Recorded platforms: Ubuntu Linux, OS X, 32-bit Windows Installer, and 64-bit Windows Installer.
• Package formats: TAR.BZ2, DMG, and EXE.
• Stored package records: 4; records with checksums: 4.

Working With Archived BlueGriffon Releases

The strongest reason to consult an old BlueGriffon package is reproducibility. A legacy environment may depend on a particular build, packaging method, or operating-system target that has changed in later releases.

Before relying on any archived package, confirm the required version, operating system, architecture, and file type. Release age can also affect security support, dependency availability, file-format behavior, and compatibility with newer hardware or services.

Package and Platform Compatibility

BlueGriffon packages on this page are labeled for Ubuntu Linux, OS X, 32-bit Windows Installer, and 64-bit Windows Installer. Match that label with the filename and extension before testing because package format often carries assumptions about the operating system and installation process.

Package extensions in the archive include TAR.BZ2, DMG, and EXE. Use those extensions to separate installable builds from portable archives or platform images, and avoid renaming files in a way that removes useful release-identification details.

Checksums and File Identification

Integrity metadata covers 4 of the 4 listed files and includes MD5, SHA1, and SHA256. This can distinguish an unchanged archived file from one that was renamed, truncated, or otherwise altered after release.

Compare a digest using the same algorithm shown in the package record and require an exact match. If a file has no historical checksum, rely on the official project record and other provenance evidence rather than inventing or inferring a value.

Choosing Between Old and Current Versions

The current BlueGriffon page lists 3.1, while this archive covers 3.0.1. That separation helps users avoid selecting a historical build when they only intended to find the actively maintained release.

Use the current BlueGriffon release page for normal evaluation. This archive is the better source only when the target environment, migration plan, or audit record names one of the historical versions listed above.
