[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: ncftp-3.1.3-1
The ncftp package has been updated to version 3.1.3-1. Ncftp is an improved FTP client. Ncftp's improvements include support for command line editing, command histories, recursive gets, automatic anonymous logins and more. Changes (with respect to 3.1.3-1): o Updated to official 3.1.3 source. See http://www.ncftp.com/ncftp/doc/changelog.html for more info. o Many of our cygwin-specific patches have been absorbed by the official version! o Now uses readline for terminal handling, instead of its own builtin routines. (Thx to Shane Wegner and Hack Kampbjorn). --- 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 'ncftp' from the 'Net' category. 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 usually up-to-date. In DK, http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror. Please send questions or comments to the Cygwin mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . If you want to subscribe go to: http://cygwin.com/lists.html I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general. If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** To unsubscribe to the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.

Because, as was discussed some time ago, it seems the only way some of us can print from cygwin. However, I will try Larry's idea of using lpr from cyutils. I thought I had lpr and it did not work, but it is the WINNT/system32/lpr.

This is a standard Perl module, so you should send bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Run perlbug to help you format the report to them. File/Spec/Unix.pm already has a special case for Cygwin in canonpath, so they may be willing to make another special case for "x:/". Try "/cygdrive/c/test" instead, "C:/test" isn't a POSIX path. By using File/Spec/Win32.pm, you are causing other filename handling to be done incorrectly for Cygwin. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.

Setup.exe thoughts and queries
I have a problem with the new setup. Its current behaviour in "download from internet" mode is non-intuitive (for me). I can't report it as a bug, as I've not seen its intended action documented in enough detail anywhere, so this is likely cockpit error. [And don't take that as a criticism; I know the setup work is ongoing and the time needed to write a user guide hasn't yet been found by anyone.] My expectation was that the "download from internet" mode would be totally independent of any current Cygwin installation on the machine doing the download. This would make it ideal for downloading for later installation to multiple machines, and for enabling a damaged installation to be easily wiped and reinstalled from scratch. I assumed that all the info on the download, including mirror(s) chosen, proxy setting, and package selection, would be held in the downloaded directory structure, and that when re-run setup would determine which packages were up to date, and which had newer downloads available. Indeed, I envisaged that it would be reasonable to have more than one "local download directory" on a given machine - eg so one could be kept as a fully-tested baseline, and one could include experimental and new releases. But it seems to me that the contents of the current Cygwin installation plays a part in how setup decides what to download. This I find confusing for a number of reasons. Of course it conflicts with my preconcieved model (above), but also: . Since download from internet can be used on a machine with no Cygwin installation, it can work without the installation info. . When "download from internet" is run twice in succession, the second run doesn't notice some (any?) of the downloads performed by the first run, so you get them all again. . The value of separating download from install is reduced by having this interdependence. It seems the only logical thing to do after a download is to immediately install exactly what was downloaded - which might as well have been done as the download progressed in the first place. As an experiment I renamed my cygwin installation, and ran setup in download mode. When it had finished it had created a new Cygwin installation directory containing etc/setup/timestamp and var/log/setup.log[.full] I use Cygwin at home and work. It is quicker to copy the Cygwin download directory via a laptop than to repeat the transfer. But I'm concerned that this could confuse setup. Apologies for the length of this. I would dearly like to know if the current setup is (with regard to download) performing as intended; what the intention was; whether my naive idea of its action was ever a design goal, and if not whether setup can be used effectively for managing multiple installations. A few words from Robert et al here or in the FAQ or homepage could well save a lot of confusion and wasted time for me and others. Another point - the Cygwin mailing lists page states that the appropriate list for this discussion is cygwin-apps, but also says that this list is by-approval. It doesn't say that only subscribers can submit to this list, but I've seen this mentioned elsewhere. As I'm not subscribed to cygwin-apps, and I'm sure the intention is not to stifle discussion on setup, I'm mailing here. BTW - setup.exe 2.194.2.22 runs fine for me on W98 SE.

Bug: cygwin Perl uses File/Spec/Unix.pm instead of File/Spec/Win32.pm
To reproduce the bug: perl -e 'use File::Spec; print File::Spec->file_name_is_absolute("C:/test") ? "no bug" : "bug";' To fix the bug add a line cygwin => 'Win32', at the beginning of File/Spec.pm in the definition of the %modules hash table.

What it won't do is add to it. I downloaded the new setup today too. I first download things. I basicly want to have a local mirror so I can install things from there on several boxes. I stopped downloading because I didn't like that directory. Maybe I should mirror it an other way? If I download it like this, and then install it from that dir, will it use the newest packages? What happens if I download from an other site? Will it make yet an other directory? Will it then still pick the latest version? I canceled the download and started over, and it downloaded all the same files again, so I assume it won't do what I want at all. Any suggestions? I also find an other small problem. Sometimes it seems to be unable to get the setup.ini from mirror, sometimes it does. It complains rather fast, I don't think it even made a connection to it.
