Support for building Sage on Cygwin was dropped around the Sage 2.5.x release, so right now there is no official support any more. We are in process of porting Sage using Microsoft Visual Studio compiler, i.e. MSVC, but that will take probably at least until the end of the year. I have build most of Sage with Cygwin, but there are a couple issues that need to be fixed before it becomes usable again. Right now I am concentrating on the 64 bit OSX port of Sage, but once that is done I will get back to Cygwin/MSVC. As part of the MSVC port we will resurrect the Cygwin port, so that will hopefully work again in a couple weeks. Would you want to help out with the Cygwin port I can certainly point you to some bugs and tell you how to fix them. Right now it just isn't priority for me ;) > Robert Cheers, Michael --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
