I'm on Win7 64-bit

What's in C:\Users\Iain\.julia\ICU\deps\deps.jl?

And what happens if you run Pkg.build("ICU")?

[mlubin]

On my system, MikTex installs a version of icuuc49.dll but not icui18n49.dll, so BinDeps finds the former from MikTex and icui18n51.dll from WinRPM. When I uninstalled MikTex, everything runs fine.

Library search path failure...

[nolta]

Thanks @mlubin, i've add a check for library mismatch (3a52c445fffa3df60863a2162b5a66b5cd341308).

But i don't know enough about BinDeps to fix this. Can BinDeps be told two libraries have to come from the same directory? Or to search WinRPM first?

I have a crude fix for this in e0dd24f5a707287233163427ccb7a64c87cb29ee; could someone try it out?

[IainNZ]

I've only got 0.2 Julia installed so can't get it.

[IainNZ]

I just checked out master on Windows (laptop) I can run Pkg.build but it fails on using with ERROR: icui18nlib not defined

[mlubin]

What's the reason for dropping support for 0.2?

[nolta]

@IainNZ sorry, typo. Try f9ae4709c1a830d70bfad1ba1bd300f62fbfa822.

@mlubin i'm not dropping support for 0.2.

[IainNZ]

So its working with 64-bit Julia 0.2 on 64-bit Windows, I'll try 32-bit Julia now

32bit Julia on Win64

[nolta]

Sorry, a bit tired today, and making a lot of silly mistakes... try cf771a3ddebb980e83235a9da0690364a9f66e70

[IainNZ]

Works, no errors (still get the redefining warning)

[IainNZ]

(which I don't think is a big deal if you want to put it off to another day)

[nolta]

Yeah, i'm not worried about the warning, since this is just a temporary hack.

[IainNZ]

So I think we are done here then? Is METADATA up-to-date?

[nolta]

Yes, i've updated METADATA.
