#2105 mingw-get fails on invalid HTML link

[Michael Rauch]

Trying to run installer did not work,.
I tried then manual frist time installation and get some errors.

Are there actual links changed ?

Maybe SF was doing maintenance. Errors in downloading from SF is not something we can control. You'll just have to try again.
