Hi folks,
I'm trying to port my project's [1] build/package script to Cygwin but
I'm facing some difficulties during runtime.
It runs fine under Linux and OSX but I'm not sure if that's because
these environments fulfil a dependency I'm unaware of, while Cygwin
being a stripped down system does not, or something else.
Here's how to go about reproducing it.
To setup the Cygwin environment:
----------------------------
setup.exe -q -R c:\cygwin -l c:\cygwin-packages -P make,gcc,g++,perl,wget
----------------------------
To reproduce the issue open up the Cygwin shell:
----------------------------
mkdir lib
cd lib
wget --no-check-certificate
https://raw.github.com/Arachni/arachni/experimental/external/scripts/lib/readlink_f.sh
cd ..
wget --no-check-certificate
https://raw.github.com/Arachni/arachni/experimental/external/scripts/build.sh
bash build.sh
----------------------------
It fails when it tries to build the first dependency, libiconv, but I'm
not sure why.
For some reason it looks for a /usr/lib/libiconv.la while it has been
configured with a different prefix.
Anyone have any ideas?

what about using the cygwin libiconv ?
$ cygcheck -f /usr/lib/libiconv.la
libiconv-1.14-2
To successfully port a software to multiple platforms, I suggest you
to use Autoconf/Automake and use standard test to verify your dependency

Please also look on existing cygwin packages at

and install the relative devel packages
