[Bug] Farm not available after destroying buildings

from Elemental Forums

Two bugs with farms and building destruction:

 

The first is at the start of a game build a city near the farm patch and build on all possible tiles. Then research the farm tech. When the farm tech is available destroy some buildings to leave room for the farm. The problem is the farm building won't be available to build. It only becomes reavailable to build when the city levels up to a hamelet or to the next level.

When it becomes reavailable (or in a new game) build the farm on the farm patch then destroy it. There again the farm will no longer be available to build untill your city levels up.

Farms can't be built before hamlet state, that's a feature. But your second bug is a real one.

You can build farms before your city becomes a hamelet. Try building a city not next to the farm patch and researching the farm tech. Then build a secod city near the farm patch once you have researched the fam tech. You will be able to build the farm straight away before your city becomes a hamelet. The farm is not available before hamelet for the first city you build because of the bug (and because this first city is generally built before farm tech is dscovered and next to the farm patch).

 

apparently it seems more like a bug that you can't build a farm in the first city before it levels up

Anybody not getting the farm to come up as a potential building to build since the last update?  I researched the agriculture but I must be missing something...
