[tahoe-dev] Must be overlooking something: unable to find vcvarsall.bat

[Vanderlinden, Chris]

Steps taken:

Steps so far I took were the following:

Installed Python 2.6.3
Installed Pywin32-214
Installed MinGW5.1.4(with g++)
Grabbed the Tahoe-1.5.0.tar.gz file
Grabbed the tahoe.deps.tar.gz file

Extracted both to c:\allmydata-tahoe-1.5.0

Ran: python setup.py build_tahoe
(path has both C:\MinGW\bin and c:\Python26 setup)

Any ideas on what I must have overlooked?

I didn't bother copying the part where I misspelled compiler in the
distutils config file :)
