[tahoe-dev] Build issue

[sidsal sal]

Hi Fred,
Thank you very much for the detailed steps.

As per the suggestion, I removed all my Python, MinGW installations,
(rebooted my PC), tried with new installations. Checked the versions and are
correctly printed.
(This is visible in the attached log). But I am bit unlucky, getting the
same error! Not sure why. (log attached)

As a solution, I copied "tahoe-deps" directory (from
http://tahoe-lafs.org/source/tahoe-lafs/deps/) in allmydata-tahoe-1.6.1
directory, build seems to be fine. Is this fine?

Thanks,
--Sid
