I was waiting to finish the cpack cygwin installer, but it is going slower than I thought it would. So, I will do 2.4.2 for cygwin using our old process. It should be up today. Did you try bootstrapping cmake, and not building it with an older version of cmake? -Bill _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list CMake@cmake.org http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
