I notice that the size of the Windows installer (without Java) jumped from 77M to 155M! What happened?

Hi Olivier,


Thanks for the bug report.


Indeed, the size of the JChem installer increased with 78MB since the previous version (5.0.4).


Instead of the platform dependent Marvin Beans installer, all Marvin Beans installers are wrapped into the windows version of JChem installer.


It is a bug, we will fix it asap.

AFAICT it's still unchanged. When do you plan to get to it? Thanks.

Hi Olivier,





It is important to note that the increased installer size does not have any side effects apart from the inconvenience of a slower download.





We have decided to not only rebuild the installer, but release version 5.0.6 with a few important bugfixes also included, that's why it takes a little more time.





This new release should be out in 1-2 days.





Thank you for your patience.





Best regards,





Szilard
