O yea I was going to submit a patch to add a note along with some more elaboration on "hard way" building because its incomplete for a fresh install. i.e. missing make and cmake packages. Also the run "pacman -Syu" after fresh install is wrong as it will throw errors, theres a command you have to run first before per the msys2 website's instructions.
Actual boost package downgrade is just: pacman -U "http://repo.msys2.org/mingw/x86_64/mingw-w64-x86_64-boost-1.57.0-4-any.pkg.tar.xz" On Wed, Dec 2, 2015 at 11:05 AM, Wayne Stambaugh <stambau...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 12/2/2015 11:03 AM, Mark Roszko wrote: >>> In the not too distant future, you will have to build boost (probably >>> version 1.59) >> >> If there's ever a recommendation written somewhere.
