Building for Windows isn't working on Mac

[dnish]

Hey,
I try to built an installer on my Mac machine for Windows devices. I'm running the following command:

npm run desktop -- build-installer --win http://myapp:80

The building proccess aborts with the following error:

ERROR  installerBuilder:  error while building installer:  TypeError: it.toLowerCase is not a function

Hey @dnish,

I've reproduced it. Will be fixed in 0.1.4 within 10 hours from now.

[wojtkowiak]

0.1.4 has been released, please check it now.

Hey @wojtkowiak,
thanks for the update. The error is gone, but now I get the following one if I try to build for Windows:

Ah okay, so Wine needs to be installed to build for Windows. I'll try that.

Works fine now, thank you very much :)
