### Problem Description
Using Version 3.0.2 of the ESP boards (in the IDE Boards Manager) produces link errors in all sketches, even the example 'blink' sketch. The same sketches compile and link OK for the Uno, but all fail when compiled for the Wemos D1 Mini.

The problem developed in the middle of an ongoing project. I took a dinner break and when I returned, nothing would compile.

Reinstalled Version 3.0.1 and the problem goes away.

### Sketch
As stated in the description, this link error presents for any sketch. The error messages are identical.
