i'm trying to install kde on windows 7 in order to get kdeedu working.
below is the procedure i've followed which leads to problem:

1. download the kde for windows installer
2. start the installer
3. yah da yah da
4. choose url for download mirror
5. the releases download starts and finishes with no problems
6. the window for choosing a release opens WITH NO RELEASES IN THE LIST.
the system asks the user to choose a release from the list and there are no
items visible on the screen.
7.;'(

below is the log for the process. i see that there are some "not found"
messages in it:

regards,
