I don't think the current installer knows how to pop up a message.  I
think we could halt the install until the user hits a key.  We would have
to change the installer.xml and repackage that in the 4.16.0 binary to
make that happen though.  Or are you thinking of some other way to do
generate the popup?

I was referring to the idea where we stay with current installer as is and
popup with the message to the user if problems during download occurs.

Message could contains link to the zip.

I'm not sure what kind of popup you are thinking of.  What code/script
would we change to generate the popup?

Also, IMO, the PMC has to reach consensus that we can distribute a binary
that doesn't have a source package that automatically generates it.  I'm
personally ok with that.  I don't think automatic generation is a
requirement.  Or you, personally, can post the zip and blog about it.  But
for us to promote it off of our website probably means we need PMC
approval first.

Thoughts?

Alex,

Can we exact specify if user face this problem ? Maybe we could do this zip
file, and notify user by popup - Hey you have to download 64 bit installer.

In the other words zip file is best option for me.
