Hi Joel,

I don’t know about Windows, but if linux is an option then you can check out 
the wiki page I wrote:

I found out that something on Ubuntu 14.04 prevented the install from working 
properly (I assume it’s one of the libraries I installed via apt-get). When I 
installed 1.6.1 from source on Ubuntu 14.10, it worked fine.

I also found a similar guide for building 1.6.1 on Ubuntu here:

I hope that helps!
