Comment 11 for bug 1132270

What I want is to hack on igraph to include things like https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1090728 and plots shown inline in ipython. :-)

right now I tried to build the msvs pack directly from source (error as above) and then compile via the msvc download. The last resulted right now in:

--
# In igraph-0.6.5-msvc
call "%VS90COMNTOOLS%"\\vsvars32.bat
vcbuild igraph.vcproj "release|win32"
# This succeeds. yay!
--
And the compile the python source:
--
# edit the path in setup.py
python setup.py bdist_wininst
--
This fails with

Hacking on igrahh on windows in python seems to be a challenge :-)
