Message234619
It looks like #1088716 is where the change was made a bit over 10 years ago. Adding Paul to see if he has any further insight, but I'm pretty sure at that point there was no 64-bit Python (there certainly wasn't a 64-bit Windows that people were using), and probably nobody noticed/cared that it wasn't there. It may even have been missing completely from the 64-bit installer until I took over building and started doing it slightly differently from Martin.
I've attached a patch for msi.py that will use mingw-w64's tools when building the installer, but I suspect we're better off putting the instructions there rather than hoping build versions match.
Is there a mingw list we can post this thread to for opinions from more people who depend on this lib? |
