BGT installation under Linux fails when using the 64bit version of WeiDU #3

I already mentioned that a while ago in the forum (http://www.shsforums.net/topic/57620-please-ship-tis2bg2-for-linux-amd64/), but as nothing has happened so here comes the topic again as an issue.

When trying to install BGT under Linux with the 64bit version of WeiDU it fails, because it can't find a 64bit-compatible version of tis2bg2 under bgt/install/unix/amd64. So please ship a 64bit version of tis2bg2 as well. I would've loved to provide a pull request for that, but as I neither have the source code of the tis2bg2 version used nor know with which parameters it's getting compiled I'm not able to do so.

That problem doesn't apply to mosunpack and tisunpack because these binaries are already supplied by WeiDU itself (and should therefore removed from BGT completely as already prepared in #2).

I'm having a similar issue on OS X 64bit. No tis2bg2 executable for that platform either.

FWIW, this post has a link to the tis2bg2 source and includes an OS X port. I've compiled it successfully, but the BGT installer is still erroring saying it can't find it. Could be some unrelated problem, though.

Ok, got it to install. The executable was fine, it just needed to be in bgt/install/osx/amd64. Being in the WeiDU bin directory or in my PATH was not enough. The resulting BG2 still can't work, though (can't find some bif file).
