Hi,

I'm trying to build visqol on windows 11 (x64, Bazel version 5.3.2), but it seems unable to fetch the llvm-raw repository

Here is what it says :

Same error for me :(

edit:

Fixed by running msys2 as admin

Sorry for the delay in looking into this. I don't run into this error building, and I verified it still builds for me today on Windows. The error message mentions permissions, requiring either admin or developer mode. This appears to be a general Windows restriction for creating symlinks.

I see that pjnr1 was able to build in admin - I don't need admin to build, but perhaps I have developer mode set.

@mchinen why don't you just publish binaries at least? is it prohibited by google?
