bazel fetch (and build) fails on OSX with "no such package '@glib_archive//'"

[machinaut]

Doing all this over NIPS conference wifi has been a bit of a ride, but I was able get a setup where all the external dependencies can be pulled reliably (by rehosting them locally).

Trying to just make sure I have all the prerequisites for lab, I'm running bazel fetch :game. Output:

$> bazel fetch :game
Extracting Bazel installation...

Might be an issue with bazel on Mac, but want to make sure it's not something obvious I'm missing.

Thanks.

Argh. I'm pretty sure this is a case-insensitive filesystem issue.

Notably, the symlink it's trying to make (BUILD) fails because a directory called build already exists. Trying again with a case-sensitive filesystem.

Unfortunately, DeepMind Lab doesn't support OSX at the moment.

Feel free to reach out to me here at NIPS if you have questions about DeepMind Lab. :)
