You need to have a number of trees to build.

I suggest doing it the same way I did:

1. Get (not tag, get) address@hidden/dists--devo--1.0.

2. Learn about "tla build-config ...". This will automatically
   download everything needed to build.

3. Build it.

4. tla src code is in the tree at src/tla, or
   address@hidden/tla--libarch--1.2. I deleted the directory,
   tagged address@hidden/tla--libarch--1.2 to my own
   address@hidden/tla--libarch--1.2, and checked it
   out under the same directory name.

This is just one way, that doesn't require branching
address@hidden/dists--devo--1.0, you could consider this good or
bad.

5. If you still have problems, then let us know on this mailing
   list. I have been deliberately vague on some of the details, so I
   don't have to spend time looking them up.

Hmmm... Having said the above, It no longer works, did I do something
wrong here?
