Hi, I'm happy to announce the availability of 1.4 beta2 at http://win-builds.org/web-test/
This version is very close to beta1 and its 60 packages plus the following fixes: > - at the end of installation on Windows, libwinpthread.dll must be > manually copied from <triplet>/bin/libwinpthread-1.dll to bin/ > (will be fixed in next update by setting --bindir) Solved through 'mv'; libtool has no way to honor a 'bindir' in its install mode. > - some symlinks for ICU libs are broken Fixed through small patches to the build system. > - libarchive is built with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS set to 32 Actually wrong: _FILE_OFFSET_BITS is set to 64 but this is not enough to get 64 bits sizes in struct stat. Not patched since issue is a serious and ABI-breaking change which only upstream can decide how to fix properly. Will be reported there soon. > - yypkg.exe adapts its UI whether it is started from command-line or not > but the detection is not reliable (code to fix is already written) Fixed through better detection of the parent process. Main changes left for the release: - check harfbuzz' dependencies (probably won't change) - yypkg will also attempt to automatically discover where it is installed when run from the command-line (currently the path has to be specified) - yypkg will be able to install from file:// mirrors in addition to http:// ones - installation on cygwin puts spurious end of line markers in paths in configuration files The following notes still apply: > Note: > - this version is not compatible with an installation of 1.3; if you > wish to install it at the same location as 1.3, simply rename the 1.3 > installation directory to something else (e.g. append ".bak" to its > name) > - the list of dependencies to install on linux is still partial; input > is needed to improve distribution coverage Regards, Adrien Nader ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Accelerate Dev Cycles with Automated Cross-Browser Testing - For FREE Instantly run your Selenium tests across 300+ browser/OS combos.
