Various software built on various platforms.

Prebuilt binaries

Prebuilt binaries on different platforms of various products.

Updates

• 210726: Binary files are versioned using Large File System (LFS). Therefore, the [GitHub.Git-LFS]: Git Large File Storage extension is required for any Git operation (clone) to work properly. Regular download (from Web browser) is not impacted

Glossary

Some terms will be used in this repository. Listing them here to avoid any confusion:

• Architecture:
  • pc: Intel, AMD or compatible CPU, followed by the bitness:
    • pc032: x86, i386, i686, ...
    • pc064: x64, AMD64, x86_64, ...

Notes:

• They are not present in the official repositories

• Some might be customized

• If someone needs:

  1. Another (newer) version of an existing software
  2. A brand new software

  ping me (here (via Discussions), [StackOverflow]: CristiFati, [LinkedIn]: Cristi Fati, ... ), and I'll try to add it. Note that it might / will take a while (especially for the 2^nd item), and in some cases (when too much work / research is needed), it migt not even get materialized

• If someone spots a problem in an existing software, please let me know so I can remediate it ASAP (or remove the faulty piece)

LEGAL INFORMATION

Under no circumstances, I (the entity that built the software in this repository) should be held responsible for any:

• Damage or loss that may appear because the software use
• License terms violation. Anyone who uses the software is responsible for consulting (and complying with) the license terms. If something isn't clear, the software vendor should be contacted, before using the software

For software that I customly built (e.g. .zip files), I included the license file(s) (e.g. LICENSE*, README*, COPYING*, ...) of the software itself (and in some cases of any additional software that it uses) in the package.
But for some software that automatically generates the build artefacts (e.g. .whl files), and doesn't include the license file(s), in order to avoid modifying the build process, I didn't. Instead, I uploaded the files next to the artefacts, so they are easily accessible.

DETAILS

Generics that apply unless otherwise specified

• Archive (.zip) packages should typically be unpacked in:
  • Win specific
    • "C:\Program Files"
    • "C:\Program Files (x86)" for pc032 binaries on pc064 OS (which is equivalent to "C:\Program Files" in pc032 processes)
  • Nix specific
    • /usr/local (requires root (sudo)). Some ELFs might have the DT_RUNPATH (former DT_RPATH) flag set to this location
• Files in the archive are organized in a folder structure ${VENDOR}/${SOFTWARE}/${VERSION}/.... Often, ${VENDOR} and ${SOFTWARE} are the same
  • The bin directory of such an "installation" could be added to PATH variable for convenience
  • Nix specific
    • Folder structure (above) starts with ${ARCHITECTURE}
• Win specific
  • MS UCRT (Universal C RunTime (from Visual Studio 2015 or newer)) is used for builds
  • Binaries are typically linked against the dynamic UCRT version. In that case, the Visual C Redistributable (currently (URL might change in the future) available at [MS.Support]: The latest supported Visual C++ downloads) is required on the target system

prebuilt-binaries's Issues

Bad zip file error - pygraphviz-1.7-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl

Hi I have downloaded the "pygraphviz-1.7-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl" (thank you for providing these files by the way) and tried to install the file using "pip install pygraphviz-1.7-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl" and I get the following error (I have tried to download multiple times and tried the installation with each one but the error persists)

I'm installing this into an environment on Anaconda. I have already installed 64-bit Graphviz for Windows-10 and added it to my path. I'm installing the "whl" file from the exact file location where I have downloaded it to.

(pomgn) C:\Users\sreedatta>pip install C:\Users\sreedatta\pygraphviz-1.7-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
