Windows users please note: the all-in-one bundles below contain bleeding-edge libs. The proper 1.2.1 release on Windows will contain something a bit more stable 😄

Errata
The detached signature for mypaint-w64-1.2.1-beta.1-setup.exe did not match the installer, so I've pulled the -w64 release while I investigate (or just make a new release). Thanks to sapphirepaw for noticing and reporting this! The sha256 checksums of the removed files were

In all probability, nothing nefarious has happened at github. The cause is likely to be a cockup at my end, sorry. The checksums match what I've had cached on my developer laptop since the release, so your existing downloads are very likely to be as I built them. Just being cautious here.
