Contribution Package Proposal: JASSPA's MicroEmacs
Hi, I would like to contribute JASSPA's MicroEmacs to the Cygwin package list, a Emacs Text Editor. This is currently being distributed from http://www.jasspa.com. We are in the process of putting together the next release and have now resolved most of the problems in porting to the Cygwin environment (site contents are not current). Because we are encumbered with a license that was inherited from the original uEmacs then I though I had better check whether our license violates your distribution mechanism. We are (unfortunately) not under GPL, but all of the source is freely available. The license we currently run with is attached below. So before I take this any further (i.e. put together a complete package) then I need some sort of approval that we have a potentially valid submission. Also attached is the setup.hint - as per Web instructions.

Re: Contribution Package Proposal: JASSPA's MicroEmacs
I believe the commercial restrictions are problematic. If we're going to include an emacs, I'd prefer one that is completely free (speech) like FSF Emacs or XEmacs. However, with the soon-to-be-released features in setup.exe, there's no reason why Jon can't provide a cygwin-friendly download site (complete with his own setup.ini) -- folks could then explicitly add his download site to their own list, and the new setup will present a merged view of available packages. That is, folks who want JASSPA's MicroEmacs could get it via setup.exe, but it doesn't need to be distributed via the cygwin mirror system. --Chuck Jon Green wrote: Hi, I would like to contribute JASSPA's MicroEmacs to the Cygwin package list, a Emacs Text Editor.

linking with glut32.lib?
Hi,
I'm trying to get a GLUT application compiled under cygwin and am
having a spot of bother. I've got it going fine under Linux (my
preferred platform - I try not to touch Windows if I can help it), but
I'd like to have Windows users be able to run it too and Cygwin seemed
the obvious choice.
Anyway I've put glut32.{dll,lib} from
http://www.xmission.com/~nate/glut/glut-3.7.6-bin.zip and
{glu,opengl}32.{dll,lib} from
http://download.microsoft.com/download/win95upg/info/1/W95/EN-US/Opengl95.exe
in /usr/local/lib and then tried to link it like this:
gcc *.o /usr/local/lib/glut32.lib /usr/local/lib/opengl32.lib \
/usr/local/lib/glu32.lib -lm -o program
but I get errors like this:
whatever.o:123: undefined reference to `glutInit@8'
so am I right in thinking there's something wrong with glut32.lib?
All the references to functions in opengl32.lib and glu32.lib resolve
OK, but not any to the functions in glut32.lib. How can I fix this or
is there a different glut32.{dll,lib} that I should be using?
Thanks for any assistance,
Mark.

default mounts
Hi all, I have just installed the latest cygwin dll. I noticed that the /bin and /usr/bin are now their own separate directories. At one point, they were symlinks. But when I reboot my computer, my mount table still shows the e:\cygwin\bin is mounted on /usr/bin, where e:\cygwin is mounted on /. This means both /bin and /usr/bin are the same physical directory. But the setup.exe has placed valid files in /usr/bin, which is overridden by the mount. Is this the normal behavior?

GREAT IDEA !
I just rebuilt python 2.1.1 with threads and linking _socket statically
and all seems to work :-)
[snip]
I just tried the above and it works. However, it only works if one has
not fiddled around with rebasing their DLLs.
Although this is a good short-term workaround (and the one that I will
probably use when I release Python 2.2), I think that we should focus
our efforts on trying to solve this problem at its root cause -- Cygwin
fork() and DLL base address conflicts. Otherwise, when something else
changes we will be back in the same situation.
I believe that I have found a rebase solution to the Cygwin fork()
problem that has been causing Cygwin Python some grief lately. I added
an offset option to the attached rebase tool. If I spread the DLLs out
by an extra 0x1, then the fork() problem seems to be mitigate.
The following is the command line necessary to build rebase:
$ g++ -O2 -o rebase rebase.cc -limagehlp
After rebasing the necessary Cygwin DLLs:
$ cd /usr/bin
$ rebase -d -b 0x6800 -o 0x1 cygXpm-X4.dll cygXpm-noX4.dll \
cygbz21.0.dll cygcrypto.dll cygform5.dll cygform6.dll \

cygregex.dll cygssl.dll cygtcl80.dll cygtclreg80.dll cygtiff3.dll \

I am able to build Python *without* the following patch:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=491107group_id=5470atid=305470
After rebasing the necessary Cygwin and Python DLLs:
$ cd /usr/bin
$ rebase -d -b 0x6800 -o 0x1 cygXpm-X4.dll cygXpm-noX4.dll \
cygbz21.0.dll cygcrypto.dll cygform5.dll cygform6.dll \

I can run the full regression test without any failures *even though*
_socket is a shared module.
I encourage those interested in Cygwin Python to determine whether or not
the above rebase solution works for them too. I'm particular interested
in 9x/Me reports since I do not have access to those platforms. Please
post your results to the Cygwin and Python mailing lists.
If my findings are corroborated, then I will work with the Cygwin team
to integrate rebase into setup.exe so that rebasing automatically occurs
every time that setup.exe is run.
Thanks,
Jason

Re: how can I install version 1.3.2?
The problem I've been having is that gdb won't direct stdout and stderr to the gdb console frame - it pops up a dos window instead. I mention this to you because I saw a reference you made to a very similar problem and you seemed to know how to fix it. (http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-03/msg00718.html) I tried starting xemacs with your run program, but it didn't fix the problem. I'm glad to try to help work through this problem, but I've got to use gdb for my work. Either I get it to work again or I start developing using VC++. My other alternative is to go back to Solaris/xemacs.

Setup 2.125.2.10 fails to install on Win2K
Upgraded to latest setup today (2.125.2.10) and tried to update my already- existing installation. I have several systems with it installed, so I download the new packages first, then install from the local directory. Setup downloaded a few packages. I tried to install onto a 50.3G FAT32 partition, with 28.5GB free. I tried to install from a 57.2G NTFS partition, with 23.4G free. When I tried to install from the local directory, and after selecting the packages recommended, setup instantly puts up a dialog box labeled mount that says The operation completed successfully. Behind that box is the Cygwin Setup, and says Installing..., The Package and Total indicator bars are blank, and the button says Cancel. Clicking OK on the mount box terminates the installation, with nothing installed. I tried a complete install to a different partition from the local disk; same thing, although the directory structure is created. I also tried a download/upgrade. The installation log is below.

You're wrong! You don't need the URL. :-) But it would be appreciated. What I was trying to find out was just how much reading of the license agreement was actually done. You've clarified the subject for Michael but I was kinda hoping that if he was seriously thinking about including the binaries that he'd seriously read the license agreement. However, since none of us is actually a lawyer here, lately I have been advising people that if they really want to be 100% sure of their distribution they should check with their own lawyer. I get asked a lot for what amounts to a lot of free legal advice and it has occurred to me that I would rather not be seen as an official last word for anything. If you are in compliance with the licensing of each of the packages that you will be releasing (including the cygwin DLL) then you should be ok. I can only speak in a semi-official capacity for cygwin. The other packages have their own licensing terms. I assume that adhering to the GPL should satisfy all of the licensing terms but I don't know for sure.

All files directory under /var are mode = 777; mode of /usr/sbin/cron = 755 ; mode of /etc/group and /etc/passwd = 644 3. $mkgroup -ld /etc/group $mkpasswd -ld /etc/passwd the server installed cygwin is in domain ( but not domain controller), i must use domain user to login and run crontab -e . Thus i used -ld in making passwd and group file. 4. I tested that Domain administrator can use cron job properly. I used cygwin version 1.3.3 in w2k SP2 Advanced server. I know that a new cygwin version is released. However, as my system is in production now, i cannot upgrade the cygwin to the most update version. Or can i only upgrade the cron tool ?

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: gettext-0.10.40-1
gettext is the GNU package which provides 'national language support' for other programs. It includes a number of utility programs. CHANGES (since gettext-0.10.38-2) o updated to gettext-0.10.40 release o modified the build process so that the auto-import/auto-export capabilities of cygwin's binutils are used. This means that there is no need for special -DSTATIC defines when linking statically. Thus, libintl.h is the same for both static and dynamic builds o This means that our libintl.h file is the same as the default version; there are no cygwin-specific changes. Hopefully, this will eliminate the problems folks have run into when building packages that include their own copy of the gettext source code. o The dll is now named according the libtool method, in preparation for a fully libtool-driven build. While the new dll (cygintl-1.dll) is backward compatible with the old one (cygintl.dll), the name change means we have to split out the DLL from this package: o gettext now has two binary packages: gettext-0.10.40-1 and libintl1-0.10.40-1 the 'gettext' one provides everything but the new dll the 'libintl1' one provides only the new dll itself o For backwards compatibility, we also provide libintl-0.10.38-3 which contains only the old dll INSTALLATION: To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'gettext' from the 'Libs' category. You may need to click the Full button if it doesn't show up. You might want to make sure you update/install ALL of the following three packages: gettext-0.10.40-1 libintl1-0.10.40-1 libintl-0.10.38-3 Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Japan, ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/gnu/gnu-win32/ is already updated. In DK, http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date.

These utilities are *statically* linked, although this package does include a dynamic lib (dll) and the associated import lib. I just didn't link the utilities dynamically. o The -src archive contains: a) an inner pristine source tarball b) a cygwin-specific patch c) a script to drive the build. To rebuild from source, unpack the outer tarball, and run 'gettext-0.10.40-1.sh all' This will unpack the inner archive, apply the patch, configure and build with the appropriate flags, as well as create new binary and source tarballs, ready for setup.exe-based installation. o Use auto-import/export features to build/linkto the DLL.
