Possible bug in setup.exe 2.303 when downloading via ftp
Hello, Yesterday I've tried to install Cygwin from scratch on Win2k Pro / SP3 with the experimental setup 2.303. This was a fresh copy of Win2k, just installed on the machine, and next I've tried to install Cygwin. I chose 'Install from Internet' and as a download site ftp://archive.progeny.com. On the package chooser screen I haven't touched anything i.e. I wanted only packages from Base to be installed. I've tried twice with the same settings and both tries were unsuccessful. What happens is that at some point during the package download, setup would hang, when it reaches the last block of data for a given package i.e. it displays something like 1005 of 1013 k. Ok, I launched a cmd window and typed 'netstat' - I saw the following: rama.progeny.com:ftp CLOSE_WAIT rama.progeny.com:49984 ESTABLISHED I left setup for several hours but nothing changed. It would just sit there and wait on that screen :) If anyone is going to try to hunt this, please, try to connect to ftp://archive.progeny.com - I suspect maybe it's something in the behaviour of their ftp server which fools setup.

CMake 1.6.1-1
There has been a new release of the official cmake 1.6.1. This is a major release from 1.4.7 to 1.6.1. Version 1.6 includes a number of new features to help make project management easier. Version 1.6 includes TRY_COMPILE and TRY_RUN which can be used to test for features of the compiler or system that you are on. The MACRO command allows repeated CMakeLists code to be encapsulated into a macro. If you need to perform very complex operations the LOAD_COMMAND command allows you to write your own CMake command using a C API that can be compiled and loaded into CMake as part of the configuration process. Here are the required files: ftp://www.cmake.org/pub/cmake/cygwin/setup.hint ftp://www.cmake.org/pub/cmake/cygwin/cmake-1.6.1-1.tar.bz2 ftp://www.cmake.org/pub/cmake/cygwin/cmake-1.6.1-1-src.tar.bz2 # CMake setup.hint file for cygwin setup.exe program category: Devel requires: libncurses6 cygwin sdesc: A cross platform build manger ldesc: CMake is a cross platform build manager. It allows you to specify build parameters for C and C++ programs in a cross platform manner. For Cygwin Makefiles will be generated.

maintainer questions: fvwm, net-snmp, UW-imapd
I want to check the list to see if there are active maintainers of any of these packages before I decide to start work on any of them. Net-snmp and UW-imapd aren't currently in our distribution, but I've seen some discussions of these two packages in the list. Is anyone actively working on creating these packages for cygwin setup? The binaries that I have for UW-imapd are from http://sourceforge.net/projects/uw-imap-cygwin/. The fvwm currently in cygwin setup is out of date by a few versions (current version on www.fvwm.org is 2.4.15). Is there someone actively maintaining this package? Again, I'm not complaining, just volunteering to "step up" if nobody else is :) thanks! -Abe
setup: Colour code package trust levels

Should I conditionalize it on a boolean command line option, or do we need

I propose applying this to setup. It doesn't work (because setup is not a

nothing, and doesn't break anything else.

Re: Some undesirable behaviour in Test77
Raymond, Are you sure you are not running twm or any other window manager? you have to REM twm in the batch file. Raymond Kwong [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Harold: The latest X server, Test 77, does not crash with -multiwindow -clipboard for me also. Thanks for the good work. There is, however, some undesirable behaviour with Test 77, which is not present in XWin-4.2.0-20. 1. I use the virtual desktop virtuawin. When I switch from another desktop to the one containing the xterms, I get incessant switching between xterms if there is more than one. This behaviour was reported by others, I think. 2. I have 2 xterms, one partially covering the other. If I click the one underneath to bring it to the front, the overlap area comes up only in outline. I can still see the material in the other xterm underneath. It is as if the xterm brought up is transparent on the overlap area! These 2 problems are not observed with XWin-4.2.0-20. Let me know what details you need to know in connection with these two problems. Because of them, I normally still use XWin-4.2.0-20, manually starting xwinclip if necessary. Although I am not 100% sure, but I think every X server later than XWin-4.2.0-20 that I tried exhibits similar problems. Raymond

Re: Some undesirable behaviour in Test 77
Yadin, No, I am not running any X window manager with the problems encountered. I emailed Harold my startup script file earlier. The peculiar thing is that Xwin-4.2.0-20 (pre -clipboard release) does not suffer from these problems when I run it in multiwindow mode. It seems to me that this perhaps has to do with how the clipboard code affects the multiwindow mode. I want to mention also that with XWin-4.2.0-25, sometimes I would not get the overlapping xterm transparency right away, but after virtual desktop switching, it will invariably come on. Raymond

./configure trouble with X
In everything I've tried to install that needs X - like gnuplot and TeXmacs, I can't get past a problem with ./configure. Every time I run the script, I get this error after some regular-looking output: checking for ANSI C header files... yes checking for string.h... yes checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for working const... yes checking for inline... inline checking for preprocessor stringizing operator... yes checking if compiler handles warn and error directives correctly... yes checking for X... eval: 1: Syntax error: ( unexpected I've tried hacking open the scripts and so forth, to no avail. I looks like an interpreter problem, but hell if I know what it means. X works fine under my cygwin install, but I can't compile anything for it! I have the x headers installed and so on... Any help would be appreciated! Jason

On Tue, Jan 21, 2003 at 05:17:14PM +0800, David Huang wrote: Is't needed to clear previous dl errors before new dlopen, dlsym, dlclose call? I don't see anything in the documentation which would indicate this. However, the current implementation seems to be wrong since it always returns the last load error even when called repeatedly. SUSv3 says: If no dynamic linking errors have occurred since the last invocation of dlerror(), dlerror() shall return NULL. Thus, invoking dlerror() a second time, immediately following a prior invocation, shall result in NULL being returned. So, I've modified dlerror to do just that. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. cgf

Getting rid of auto-import warnings
Hi, I am working on getting ACE/TAO compiling with Cygwin GCC 3.2. For this, I have setup a daily build that published the build results to http://doc.ece.uci.edu/scoreboard/. You can there find the current results for Cygwin GCC 3.2. I have modified a lot of makefiles to correctly set __declspec import/export when building with shared libraries. I got most of ACE/TAO compiling, but independent of setting the linker flags --enable-auto-import or --disable-auto-import I keep getting warnings about auto-import. It is a class with multiple statics and only on one of the statics the warning is given. The warnings: [Details] Info: resolving ACE_Time_Value::max_time by linking to __imp___ZN14ACE_Time_Value8max_timeE (auto-import) [Details] Info: resolving ACE_Time_Value::max_time by linking to __imp___ZN14ACE_Time_Value8max_timeE (auto-import) [Details] Info: resolving ACE_Time_Value::max_time by linking to __imp___ZN14ACE_Time_Value8max_timeE (auto-import) [Details] Info: resolving ACE_Time_Value::max_time by linking to __imp___ZN14ACE_Time_Value8max_timeE (auto-import) [Details] Info: resolving ACE_Time_Value::max_time by linking to __imp___ZN14ACE_Time_Value8max_timeE (auto-import) Is it somehow possible to get rid of these warnings?

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: exim-4.12-3
I've updated the version of exim to 4.12-3 This version is identical to 4.12-2 but now linked against openssl-0.9.7 It also works around a chown bug when running the queue from the shell. Pierre To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then run setup and answer all of the questions. Note that we do not allow downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) 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 Germany, ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ is usually pretty good. In the UK, http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date within 48 hours. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . 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. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Cygwin 1.3.19-1 and up: Garbage printed in ls output if the userentry is missing from /etc/passwd
Hello, I've just completed a fresh installation of Cygwin on Win2k Pro / SP3. I installed Cygwin as Administrator but then created an user called ptsekov. It happened that I forgot to update the password database after I created the new user. So I've logged in as ptsekov and the first thing I saw was the strange prompt - with the latests snapshot version of Cygwin (20030130) it looks like this for me: @mordor With the released 1.3.19-1 version it was a little bit different. Then I issued 'ls -l' on a directory which contained files with owner 'ptsekov'. The output contained garbage in the owner field of the 'ls' output. Now I know that it is not good if the user's entry is missing from the passwd database and I've corrected this, but I thought I'd post so that this could be fixed. It seems like there is some variable left uninitialized if the passwd entry is missing. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

gdb stopped working after moving Cygwin installation
Hello all, While trying to debug the bug I reported earlier (http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/msg01642.html) I ran out of disk space, so I thought I'd move Cygwin to another harddisk... (bad idea) I saved my /home directory, removed all references to Cygwin from the registry, moved the C:\cygwin directory to D:\cygwin and re-rand Setup. Everything works like a charm *except* gdb, which dies immediately at start-up. Rolling back gdb didn't help (I don't know why it would, but I tried anyway), and neither did the last snapshot. cygcheck output is attached (changed from the previous one due to the move). I've re-looked at the registry (cygcheck -r) but I see nothing out of the ordinary. AFAICT, I have only one cygwin1.dll on my system. I *know* this is not a recommended maneuver but I'd like to know if there are any pointers to be had. Otherwise, I guess I'll be forced to kinda do the same thing again :( Thanx! rlc NB: evidently, the test-case for the gdb bug I found is on hold ;) NNB: the cygcheck output is *after* I rolled back to the previous gdb (haven't rolled forward yet) and with most recent snapshort DLL cygcheck.out.gz Description: cygcheck -s -r output -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

tail -f problem
All, This is my first post to this list, so please excuse missing information that is normally seen in a possible problem with cygwin. Here goes... In my career, I'm a software consultant, doing QA on a web client/server application. Part of my investigation of issues is looking at the realtime log files of our web server (IIS in this instance). Under linux, tail -f, across a smbmount will perform exactly what I need to parse and view the log files as activity happens (I also use a cut to kill a few fields that aren't needed). Problem is, my main machine isn't linux and there isn't another linux machine around here for me to do this with (the only linux machine is a mail server which does not have a route to the areas I need to view). With cygwin's tail, the output is not quite the same as the linux version of tail. With Cygwin's version, I will get output with tail -f, but the updates aren't realtime as the linux version -- the updates are barely shown at all, if ever. Here are the different methods I used to try and parse the IIS log file: 1. Map the share of the logfile with my Windows XP machine to say Z:, etc, use cygwin.bat to launch a bash.exe shell, go to the logfile directory and tail -f name.log. 2. Terminal Service to the machine, go cmd.exe (with cygwin in the path), CD to the logfile folder and tail -f name.log. 3. Use cygwin.bat to invoke bash.exe, go to my local logfile folder and tail -f the contents of name.log. Either of these ways to access the logfile will give me the first 5 (or X lines, using the -n option) lines, then pretty much stop outputting, or slow the outputs to a virtual crawl. I must CTRL-C to break out the tail, and start it over to get the output starting again. I've tried using the -s, to sleep tail and have it try again, but this did not increase the output at all. Here are more version #s and machine info: My workstation: Dell laptop, Windows XP (non SP1 My servers: Dell rackmount, Windows 2000/SP2, IIS.

annoying problem with 'mv'
My understanding of the way that 'mv' works is that it will try to RENAME the file or directory in question provided the source and destination are on the same partition otherwise it will do a COPY. If I mv (in the sense of renaming) a large directory that is buried deep in some other directory, it will occur very quickly. If that same directory happens to be rooted at /c, it will take a very long time because it appears to be doing a copy. This has been going on for a long time, but currently I'm running the latest of almost everything on a Win2k pro box. My mount tables are: c:\program files on /PF type system (binmode) C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode) C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode) C:\cygwin on / type system (binmode) c: on /c type system (binmode) f: on /cvs type system (binmode) g: on /kits type system (binmode) e: on /e type user (binmode,noumount) n: on /n type user (binmode,noumount) This works: cd /c/mystuff mv OldDir NewDir An example of the failure would be: cd /c mv OldDir NewDir Is there a reason for this behavior?

Latest TCL/TK breaks Python's tkinter
Upgrading to either tcltk-20030128-1 or tcltk-20030128-2 appears to break Python's tkinter. Reinstalling Python didn't help. Reverting to tcltk-20021218-1 fixed the problem.

I hate asking them here cause I believe they are very simple questions and probably lots of people had the same questions before. But the cygwin and cygwin-xfree docs and faqs are kind of too short and don't provide enough information to answer my questions and strangly enough, I couldn't find the answer here by doing keyword search.

Otherwise, I guess I'll be forced to kinda do the same thing again :( I suggest: * Remove everything within D:\cygwin except home, and usr/local if you have anything you want in there * Don't bother about purging the registry again. * Use setup to reinstall Hopefully after that all will be well. It's a nuisance having to select all the packages you want again in setup, but remember you can just install Base + your immediate needs, and add other stuff as needed.

Also, I don't think of using the available options, including --help (not to mention man ps or info ps or pinfo ps) are in the category of work-arounds. You might want to investigate procps.

Re: annoying problem with 'mv'
Lynn, Try strace'ing your mv command to see where the time goes, like so: cd /c strace -o mv.strace mv OldDir NewDir and look through /c/mv.strace. For more info on strace, man strace (which also has a pointer to the web page). The file may be large, so you may want to compress it if you intend to post it to the list.

If that same directory happens to be rooted at /c, it will take a very long time because it appears to be doing a copy.

gcc as strictly win32 compiler
I know this is a VERY newbie question, but I have looked on the list archives and been confused by the compiler flags for making win apps, and the definitions of WIN32 and CYGWIN defines. I have several straight win32 apps that I wrote using MSVC and I simply want to create the executables with gcc rather than MSVC(just for fun, does that make me evil?). I have used gcc with tornado for some embedded apps before, so I am not completely unfamiliar with gcc (only for C files though). I wrote the makefiles, and after a while tinkering with some defines and slight syntax changes, I was surprisingly quickly successful at getting a code base that compiles on Both MSVC and GCC. (most of my headaches came from MSVC's implementation of STL) However, I have a few questions about how this will affect my exes. Is it possible to compile an exe that does not require the cywin.dll if I am not using any of the unix apis and sticking with straight win32? What compiler flags should be used for this and what macros do they define? if not, as I understand it, cygwin.dll interprets many commands and uses MSVCRT.dll on the back end. How do I create a redistributable for users without cygwin, and How badly does this hit performance? lastly, after hours of wondering why, I found the reason gcc was so slow when compiling certain files in my project. The compilation of templates seems to be crawling. Is there any way to speed that up or is it just a result of gcc or cygwin or possibly, my stupidity? Thanks, and I hope it wasn't too long winded or too newbie of a question. If it was, just flame me and I'll take it like a man.

Re: CygWin Installation
Sy, It is. Or, more accurately, they are. A single archive would be unwieldy and somewhat at odds with the rapidly changing set of packages and the presence of very many packages of less than universal interest. You can download individual tarballs (source tarballs are separate) from any of a large set of mirror sites and then simulate the actions of the installer. But as we've seen here, people who try that fare rather worse than those who work with installer. Really, if the Cygwin Setup.exe installer is the worst thing you've seen, you've had a blessed existence in your 30 years of computer use.

Re: CygWin Installation
Sy, Thanks for all you laconic input. Too bad you couldn't spend some of the time you saved with these breif email messages to the list looking at the email archives that discusses this issue at length. If you had, you would see why Cygwin doesn't install in the form you want. That would've removed the need for you to contact the list at all, unless of course you wanted to join the effort to improve the current installation procedure. Of course, that might take allot of time. So you could just look at the FAQ entry: How do I just get everything? http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_2.html#SEC14 Oh, if we could've all just saved all this time!

Re: Latest TCL/TK breaks Python's tkinter
It's strange that every new release of tcl/tk breaks all past programs which rely on it. I would not say that this is strange. The tcl/tk that is in cygwin, is only for insight/gdb, as the comment says. It is not a full distribution of tcl/tk.

Re: $CDPATH bug in zsh
On Fri, 31 Jan 2003, Thorsten Kampe wrote:
zsh doesn't evaluate the root directory ('/') if it is in $CDPATH. I
tested this under SuSE 8.1 and it works as supposed, so this seems to
be a Cygwin-zsh bug.
Have a look at the example[1] ('**' is my prompt).
Interesting...
Notice that if you replace / with the /cygdrive path to your root dir,
that it works:
(Administrator)[219] ~/src/zsh/work406/zsh-4.0.6 % cdpath=/cygdrive/e/cygwin
(Administrator)[220] ~/src/zsh/work406/zsh-4.0.6 % cd bin
/cygdrive/e/cygwin/bin
(Administrator)[221] /cygdrive/e/cygwin/bin %
It doesn't appear to be a mount-point issue. If you set/add one of the
other mountpoints, like /usr/lib, you can cd to a subdir without any
trouble. It appears to be just root (/).
I'll look into it.
