Windows 64 bit build

[Raghu Jayan]

Hello,

Based on a post in this mailing list I tried to obtain the Win64 port
using darcs:

darcs get --set-scripts-executable http://mico.org/mico-darcs-repository mico

However, I get an error when I run it. I get the following message,

darcs failed: Not a repository: http://mico.org/mico-darcs-repository
(CouldNotConnectToServer)

HINT: Do you have the right URI for the repository?

If so, check with the repository owner to see if the following files
are readable:

1. _darcs/format - might not exist; that's OK
2. _darcs/inventory - should exist if #1 is missing
3. _darcs/hashed_inventory - should exist if #2 is missing

Has anyone been able to successfully compile x64 windows version? I
would appreciate any pointers in this regard.

Thanks in advance,

Raghu

It's working here!

$ darcs get --set-scripts-executable
http://mico.org/mico-darcs-repository mico
Copying patch 275 of 275... done.

the problem is this is darcs 1.x repo, so you will need either 1.0.x or
2.0.x darcs to get it.

If you still do not have a luck with this, try for example this
snapshot: http://mico.org/snapshots/mico-2014-02-13.tar.bz2 -- it well
represents what's in MICO HEAD on the public darcs. There are few
patches still need to be pushed upstream on my side, but still this does
not affect Win64 build anyway so for now is probably irrelevant to you.

It should work just out of the box. If not, send a bug report here.

Thanks,
