Some of our downloads like the Windows installer bundle the libraries we use.

I agree the others are not. The current instructions are actually old enough to be broken, in that for example the appropriate SQLite file is named differently now and the listed versions of some MinGW files are in different places. >> so a general disclaimer like the one you stated above might be the way >> to go (or even something more general like "we tested this with >> release so-and-so last time, everything might have changed in the >> meantime"). > > Ok, I've left that milestone in 1.0 in RoadMap. Speaking of which, does anyone know why a monotone built with the new instructions might eat several seconds of CPU time before entering main(), or how I might debug that (especially given that ^C under gdb apparently kills gdb instead of breaking)? -- Timothy Free public monotone hosting: http://mtn-host.prjek.net _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
