I have the MinGW compiler installed (had a previous error where I had the compiler=mingw key in the cfg file misspelled.
I will give the newer command a go and see where I can get with it.

Since you're using mingw you don't have it. The fact that it is looking for it suggests that Python thinks it is supposed to use the Microsoft compiler. Did you see the part of http://allmydata.org/ trac/tahoe/wiki/InstallDetails which describes how to create a distutils config file? Oh, also "python setup.py build_tahoe" is an obsolete command name. The docs on InstallDetails should be updated to call that command "python setup.py build". Also they should explain that "can't find vcvarsall.bat" means that you need a compiler. Also they should be improved in lots of other ways that you probably already have in mind. :-) Regards, Zooko _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
