Hi guys, I have done a fresh installation of Cygwin on a new PC observing the following.
Usually I have the habit to build Emacs from CVS. Now I have tried to do the same as an user with limited account (of the group Users), but configure fails in this way: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... checking for long file names... yes checking for X... no <== checking Carbon/Carbon.h usability... no checking Carbon/Carbon.h presence... no checking for Carbon/Carbon.h... no checking for X... true <== configure: error: You seem to be running X, but no X development libraries were found. You should install the relevant development files for X and for the toolkit you want, such as Gtk+, Lesstif or Motif. Also make sure you have development files for image handling, i.e. tiff, gif, jpeg, png and xpm. If you are sure you want Emacs compiled without X window support, pass --without-x to configure. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Obviously I have all the X packages installed (I have almost ALL Cygwin installed). Repeating the same things as an user with admnistrative account (of the group Administrators), configure works fine and the build continue untill the end: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... checking for long file names... yes checking for X... libraries /usr/X11R6/lib, headers /usr/X11R6/include checking Carbon/Carbon.h usability... no checking Carbon/Carbon.h presence... no checking for Carbon/Carbon.h... no checking for malloc_get_state... no checking for malloc_set_state... no checking whether __after_morecore_hook exists... no checking for stdlib.h... (cached) yes checking for unistd.h... (cached) yes ... Configured for `i686-pc-cygwin'. Where should the build process find the source code? /tmp/emacs.tmp/emacs What operating system and machine description files should Emacs use? `s/cygwin.h' and `m/intel386.h' What compiler should emacs be built with? gcc -g -O2 -Wno-pointer-sign Should Emacs use the GNU version of malloc? yes Should Emacs use a relocating allocator for buffers? yes Should Emacs use mmap(2) for buffer allocation? no What window system should Emacs use? x11 What toolkit should Emacs use? LUCID Where do we find X Windows header files? /usr/X11R6/include Where do we find X Windows libraries? /usr/X11R6/lib Does Emacs use -lXaw3d? yes Does Emacs use -lXpm? yes Does Emacs use -ljpeg? yes Does Emacs use -ltiff? yes Does Emacs use a gif library? yes -lungif Does Emacs use -lpng? yes Does Emacs use -lrsvg-2? no Does Emacs use -lgpm? no Does Emacs use X toolkit scroll bars? yes ... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any idea ?
