I see I've violated site etiquette with my 1st posting, please accept this apology...Here is the post in plain text (I hope): I'm attempting to install MinGW manually and have hit a snag: the 7-zip package seems unable to open the tar.lzma files. I downloaded the basic-bsdtar program as well and don't seem to be able to get anywhere with that either. Any guidance would be appreciated. I am looking through the various forums/FAQ pages and apologize if this is a question has already been answered. Jim |

Why manually? I think I might learn something... (then again, I may be wasting time). I see my version of 7-zip is 4.5.7 and you're at 4.65 - That may be my problem. -----Original Message----- From: Peter Rockett [mailto:p.r...@sh...] Sent: Tuesday, February 15, 2011 10:26 AM To: MinGW Users List Subject: Re: [Mingw-users] Etiquette Mistake!!

The comment facility on mingw.org is NOT to be used for such discussion; it is to be STRICTLY reserved for critique germane to the content of the page with which it is associated. Abuse it for any other purpose, and your comment may be simply deleted, unanswered and without prejudice. If OTOH, you mean the the fora we used to run on SF, you are welcome to use them as you wish, but be aware that they are no longer supported by the project team, so we offer no guarantee with regard to the quality of content posted there. WE consider them to be deprecated. > Just make sure you don't top-post, it makes people around here MAD. It does seem to make some people mad; in my case, I just lose interest very quickly, in any top-posted discussion, and will simply decline to participate. -- Regards, Keith. |
