pthreads-win32 support
pthreads-win32 is a popular opensource pthreads library for Windows.
We use pthreads-win32 for the openvswitch project.
Today I integrated the openvswitch project with AppVeyor and had a sucessful build here (While testing yesterday, I had many successful builds):
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/shettyg/ovs/build/1.0.1
In the yml file, I do:
mkdir C:\pthreads-win32
$source = "ftp://sourceware.org/pub/pthreads-win32/pthreads-w32-2-9-1-release.zip"
$destination = "C:\pthreads-win32\pthreads-win32.zip"
Invoke-WebRequest $source -OutFile $destination
But right now, my build fails saying that I cannot connect to remote server. The log is here:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/shettyg/ovs/build/1.0.2
I do not have any problems connecting to sourceware.org from my local machine. I wonder there is a problem at Appveyor's network?
Would it be possible to provide the pthreads-win32.zip pre-installed in C:\pthreads-win32 ? The 2.9.1 version is a stable release done 2 years ago.

Could probably deploy that to "unstable" image.

Thank you Feodor for all the help that you provide here! It looks like my builds started working fine again (after around 3 failures). Does the ones in "unstable" eventually make it to the default one? Nevertheless, if I have more trouble with downloading for every build, I will start using unstable. If you prefer not to install it in "unstable" right away, that should be fine too (I am not sure how often will I find downloading from external websites to be a problem).

OK, let's leave it as is for now. Anyway, downloading it is more flexible ;)

If it's not too big of a download, I add things like this that I need to download on every build to the cache setting. That way you can avoid unreliable network issues with downloads.
