OK; since setup is not a cygwin package, where would I get the
sources in the first place? And is there a README telling me how to
build a debug version (make debug?)?
Basically:
cvs -d :pserver:anon...@cygwin.com:/cvs/cygwin-apps setup
CC=gcc-3 configure
make 'CFLAGS=-g'
So I don't need to switch set-gcc-default-3.sh, thanks.
Actually, I already checked out and compiled (after installing a bunch
of dependencies) over night after cgf's pointer to
http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html.
However, I didn't include the -g flag, assuming that leaving out the
final 'strip' step might suffice.
In case I don't get it compiled, maybe you could prepare two debug
versions (with/w/o the change below) and send them to me? I could
take an extra trip to that lab tomorrow for testing.
Well, yes, but there's very little reason that you shouldn't get it
build.
Kind of... I did the small change you suggested and ran make again for a
second test build, and guess what happens?
It's compiling *everything* again all over; that's not quite the purpose
of make, is it?
So is it really useful to go over and do the test after that's finished,
or do I need to recompile two more full times with -g?
