Building with python is failing?

Hello, I tried installing hf-ica with python today, but ran into this error:

It looks like neo_ica/ica.h is not being built, but I'm not sure where the problem is lying. Any advice?

Hi Thomas. This project does not support windows unfortunately. In your case, there is a symlink from python/src/include to include/ which does not work. Even if it worked (you can try copying the file), there would probably be compilation errors. Could you try copying lib/ and include/ to python/src/lib and python/src/include, and tell me whether you encounter compilation errors or not? Maybe compilation for windows is not that far away.

Thanks!
