Chcoclatey update error on nodist-beta about nodist HOT 6 CLOSED

Confirmed. I don't know why that might be, though, since cup nodist
works for me. Looks like a problem with chocolatey.

Also it's strange that nodist can't be found on the Chocolatey package site and in Chocolatey gui package manager in the Available packages tab. I'm new to Chocolatey, but to me it seems that "-beta" would have been specified when pushing the package to Chocolatey? The only reference to beta in yor package files is in the nuspec file - version says 0.3.12-beta.

@andersvos Yep, I think nodist is published as beta (or some sort of pre-release; you need to specify -pre to be able to install it), since the chocolatey package is not very mature yet.

As for the cup all issue, you might want to file an issue over at https://github.com/chocolatey/chocolatey

Yeah I've been reluctant to mark it non-beta since people have run into problems and testing it thoroughly takes too much time. I might have a windows box working in vagrant soon and if that works out I will be able to investigate some of the issues people are reporting.

@marcelklehr Same question, are these issues still valid?

We've dropping support for chocolatey for now, as we have a pretty straightforward installation procedure with NSIS.
