What's wrong with current 2 exe download? You either take the one without mingw, or the one with.


well, the wrong could be the unneeded server space occupied by build, the time spent to package 2 executables and to upload them on server.

Installer may be not able to download anything (what if the target computer is offline?) and the U++ has been providing both installers since start I think.



I agree to that one for releases builds, not for svn ones.
People that get svn builds usually have already an installed upp with mingw or, in the rare cases they don't they can fetch the mingw separately.
SVN builds, even if they're quite stable, should be used for testing purposes by people that already knows something about upp, and have a stable version installed.

BTW, I think the best stuff would be to provide theide with some way to check for an available mingw version and (optionally) update local version if older.

OR, it's possible to put a mingw-only installer on site and modify php script to allow people to download it if needed.
That would spare server space and upload time for mantainer.
