Presumably because that is where the build is taking place; OP's home dir must be under the Docs'n'Settings user dir. Trying the build in a subdir off /tmp might be an instant and easy workaround. Otherwise check the FAQ on the location of the home dir is decided; specifying a new home dir path (under /home, for example) without spaces in the /etc/passwd entry might be best, as this kind of problem could happen again with other software. cheers, DaveK -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
