We should decide now on the type of layout that we want and what sort of management infrastructure we are going to use (RedHat, Mandrake, Suse, Debian, or our own?).

Re: pdksh package proposal
Hmm, I disagree. pdksh should be used as a ksh substitute and I'd expect to run my scripts w/o having to change the shebang line to be `#!/bin/pdksh' for all my ksh scripts. However, this is just *my* opinion. I agree with you. Maybe a symlink is an option ? Sure, pdksh.exe plus a /usr/bin/ksh link would be nice (as long as people don't complain about the symlink slowing down their shell startup ;-)) Corinna Right, I have created updated packages with the fixes various people suggested, mostly from Pavel ;-) - Moved pdksh-5.2.14-1.patch to the root of the src package - Changed pdksh-5.2.14-1.README to reflect the above changes, ie. how to apply - Moved ksh.exe pdksh.exe - Added a check for /bin/ksh.exe in postinstall, symlink if non-existant - Check for existance of /bin/ksh in /etc/shells , add if not found - Copied the Cygwin readme, setup.hint and the patch to CYGWIN-PATCHES in the src dir And the new packages are available at http://twoducks.exposure.org.uk/elfyn/cygwin/pdksh/pdksh-5.2.14-1-src.tar.b z2 http://twoducks.exposure.org.uk/elfyn/cygwin/pdksh/pdksh-5.2.14-1.tar.bz2 http://twoducks.exposure.org.uk/elfyn/cygwin/pdksh/setup.hint Sorry for doing this a bit late...Needed the sleep :-) Regards, Elfyn McBratney [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.exposure.org.uk

problem with info files
Greetings package maintainers, I notice that _update-info-dir assumes that all info files worth indexing are of the form /usr/info/*.info. Unfortunately, there are 3 packages (if I count correctly) that do not follow this rule: emacs texinfo groff Are the maintainers of those packages aware of the problem? Can these packages be fixed? Alternatively, it might be possible to re-write /etc/postinstall/update-info-dir.sh to catch these exceptional cases. Thanks for your attention. Regards, David

Porting an application to Cygwin Lesstif issues for a Newbie
Hello, I'm trying to compile a set of open source software for processing sonar data (MB-System) on cygwin. The software comes with an install script that asks one to specify a few directories for Lesstif/Motif. On a RedHat Linux box, the lines would look like this: $MOTIFINCDIR = /usr/X11R6/LessTif/Motif1.2/include; $MOTIFLIBS = -L/usr/X11R6/LessTif/Motif1.2/lib -lXm -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXt -lX11; I'm not at all knowledgeable regarding these details, but in trying to find comparable places under cygwin I note the following: 1) There is no Motif1.2 dir under /usr/X11R6/LessTif, in fact, there is only documentation there. 2) There's an Install file that reads, in part: On windows using Cygwin, U/WIN or Interix, LessTif must be built as static libraries. Because, one of the biggest issues with X on Win32 is the moronic DLL format. Specifically - it is not possible to export data from a Win32 DLL in a form that can be used to statically initialize another global variable. Data access from a DLL requires at least one pointer indirection, and hence executable code. This is why X11R6 doesn't have DLLs for Xt/Xmu/Xaw (and Motif) on Win32 My Questions: 1) Does the text above imply, since the sonar processing software requires Xt and X11R6 on Cygwin doesn't have a dll for it, that this software is incompatible and not compilable? Am I wasting my time? 2) If it's still possible to get this to work, would anyone have any idea, based on the example for Linux, what to specify for Cygwin?

Here are two situations: (1) twm + xterm (remote), XFree86-cygwin with config where group change is ctrl+shift (local). When I press ctrl+shift TWO things happens: (a) Windows' keyboard layout is being changed for XFree86 window -- it could be seen by changing letters on tray (b) XFree86 XKB's layout is being changed: xterm shows RUSSIAN letters on next keypresses. (2) KDE with group change is ctrl+shift (remote), XFree86-cygwin with config where group change is ctrl+shift (local). When I press ctrl+shift ONE things happens: (a) Windows' keyboard layout is being changed for XFree86 window -- it could be seen by changing letters on tray KDE's (XKB) layout is not changed! But clicking on switch icon in KDE works! It is ONE server and ONE server's config. Or even better: I start xterm (without any WM), and ctrl+shift works, then I start `startkde' from xterm and when KDE loading is finished ctrl+shift doesn't work anymore. After that I'm logging out from KDE (only xterm still to be live) and ctrl+shift DON'T work! It seems, that KDE corrupt XKB config... But I have KDE configured to have Ctrl+Shift as group change!

priority assistance
19-02-03 The International Red Cross Society Refugee Rehabilitation Center BP 6042 Ougadougou BURKINA FASO Dear Honourable friend, First I must give thanks to Almighty God for preserving my life for this moment. And by his special grace I got your contact in a local directory. I am Adolphus Benedict Guei, son of Late General Robert Guei former Ivorian military Head of State killed on 19th September 2002 in an abortive coup bymembers of the Patriotic Movement for Cote d'Ivoire PMCI. My country once noted to be the most peaceful in Africa suddenly descended intoanarchy turning to a theatre of war . More thanks to United Nations High Commission for Refugees UNHCR, Economic Community of WestAfrica States ECOWAS ,International Red Cross Society IRCS, and Government of Burkina Faso for their hospitality towards thousands of displaced Ivorians in the refugee camps. I am camped in one of the United Nations Refugee Rehabilitation Centers in Burkina Faso and hope of returning to mycountry Cote D'Ivoire is not in sight as governmentand rebel forces have not arrived at a peacefultreaty. My greatest source of worry is that our family are target for elimination by same PMCI rebels who killed my father, hence we are accorded extra security in this camp. Among valuables I took with me is details of our family account in the sum of US$15. 6million invested in my name with a bank in European Union which my father entrusted to my custody, ifwe (the family) ever find ourselves in a situation ofthis nature. My father was a man of great foresight. Although I suspect this money was illegaly acquired at the expense of our country while he was the military head of state, but under this scenario you will believe with me that the end have justified the means. Presently, as a registered refugee under a special protection programme my movement is restricted. I have no access and funds to travel to Europe to negotiate for the release of this money. I now solicit your unreserved assistance and with vital agreements to act as proxy on behalf of our family and sign out the money to your custody. My family attorney is aware of our predicament. He will liase with financial bodies concerned to transfer funds to your ownership on our behalf. Once funds gets to your country you establish a medium scale industry with the funds under my supervision. I promise on my honour to give you 20% of this funds in question, and 20% share in any investment we will jointly embark upon if you eventually assist me. Acknowledge receipt of this mail while I eagerly look forward to your sincere and prompt opinion. Yours sincerely Adolphus Benedict Yakubba Guei
non-US keyboards

Re: non-US keyboards
Hi, I guess based on your email address that you're in Italy, so probably you don't know that KKK has a very, very bad connotation in the United States where many of the Cygwin subscribers reside. KKK is short for the Ku Klux Klan, a violently racist vigilante group that originated in the American South. It formed after our Civil War when American chattel slavery became unconstitutional and its members terrorized black Americans (and others) for decades. The organization still exists, sadly, and still perpetrates violent acts, though far fewer than it did in the early and mid 20th century. The name KKK is extremely offensive to many people, most of all to black Americans, but many non-black people find it offensive, too. I'd like to respectfully suggest that you change the name portion of your email address to something will a less distasteful connotation.

Corinna,
I am still worried about using !real_path.exists() to determine
non existence, as done in several places in Cygwin.
That function checks if the file attributes are
After some experiments I found out that GetFileAttributes returns
FFF on an existing file if
a) the file ACL does not allow the caller to read the attributes
and
b) the directory is unreadable.
Do you agree or is it more complicated?
In principle this does not prevent the caller from reading the
security descriptor.
To return more accurate information, symlink_info::check could call
GetLastError. If it == 5, the file exists but there is an access problem.
What to do then is TBD.
If we take for granted that (with the existing code) the situation is
hopeless when the file attributes are F then the test
if (!pc-exists ())
{
debug_printf (already determined that pc does not exist);
could be moved from fhandler_disk_file::fstat_by_name
to fhandler_disk_file::fstat (after the get_io_handle test).
While we are at it, set_query_open (query_open_already = true);
could also be called when a file has acls and ntsec is true.
On the other hand, if we keep the fstat code as it is, then for consistency
the following code in access
if (!real_path.exists ())
{
set_errno (ENOENT);
return -1;
}
if (!(flags (R_OK | W_OK | X_OK)))
return 0;
should be weakened to
if (real_path.exists () !(flags (R_OK | W_OK | X_OK)))
return 0
so that we go ahead and try to read the sd even with !real_path.exists()
What you you think?
Pierre

Re: remapping Cygwin 'bash' readline functions to PC keys
Lee D. Rothstein wrote: John, thanks for the C-V heads up! Others had suggested, variations of 'cat foo' and 'od -c'. (The former I got to work, the latter remains a mystery.)

I'll be sure to add it to my documentation. Unfortunately the key combos I'm trying to map to are: ^-- and ^-- (control- and the right and left arrow keys). It turns out that the character string outputs for both the: * naked key * shift - and the naked key * control- and the naked key are all the same. 'od -c' remains a mystery to me too - I guess I'll understand how that command works sometime later this century. But since I too am strongly interested in putting the Ctrl-Arrow keys into buisiness (as previos-word, next-word), I tried the Ctrl-V trick. It worked - thanks to John from me too. This is what I got: plain left: ^[[D shift-left: ^[[d ctrl-left: ^[Od (it's a capital O contained in there - not the number zero) So I added these lines to my .inputrc to get the wordwise movement using Ctrl-arrow: \eOd: backward-word \eOc: forward-word All the way long I have been talking about rxvt, of course. Regards mks Actually, I no longer consider these to be KIDs; these are the character string graphemic outputs of hitting the key. I'll continue to reserve KIDs for when one represents these [and the key isomorphisms] with '/e...', 'C-...', etc. notation. Apparently (?), the only way to discriminate among these three alternatives is with Scan Codes.

Nope. How should they? The really interesting fields are not identical
as e. g. st_dev, st_ino, st_mode, st_ctime. Anyway, that's not a Cygwin

Even if it isn't completely portable, at the very least, things like the

either, I'm less sure about atime. I don't have a copy of POSIX, does that

1.3.20 most recent upgrades : rxvt creates 100% load on CPU
Hello, list,
I was experimenting with emacs, found out about C-h and Backspace
problem, and then, in suggestion to found answers, I decided to try
rxvt.
rxvt seems to have a load problem, however. I haven't found anything
in the mailing list archives either, and I just upgraded all my software
this morning. When I start rxvt, the load of the CPU jumps to 100% and
I do not seem to get a prompt. That is I can't see one, but I can type
and execute commands.
I use Win2000.
Regards,
Jurgen

The presense of all the packages in the cygcheck output in the body of the message creates false positives when people try searching the archives, which results in more archives are useless posts. If you did send yours as an attachment, check your mail software configuration, it's likely set to put text attachments inline. That said, try attaching to the hanging/100% CPU rxvt process with strace (I'm assuming Task Manager shows rxvt as using 100% CPU). See where it's hanging. You might also try gdb, but that's likely to help less. Snip out the relevant strace output and post it to the list (as an attachment, probably compressed, as it's likely to be large). At least it should give you an idea of where it's looping. If strace doesn't produce any results (i.e., rxvt hangs/loops inside a Windows DLL somewhere), try running strace -o rxvt.strace rxvt youroptions and look at the bottom of that output. For more details, strace --help.

Ajay,
Two WAGs:
1) Is your /tmp mount binary or text? If text, try remounting as binary.
Also see if adding binmode to your $CYGWIN helps.
2) This one's really wild, but I know Windews has this stupid dependence
on the name of the file. Try using the nametemplate trick (%s.doc, or
something), and see if it helps.
Igor
Hey thanks for the quick reply.
Regarding 2) it *is* a .doc if not the default windows handler would not
work for it.
Umm, yes, I'm slow today. However, the '' in your ls output
indicates that your /etc/{passwd,group} aren't up to date. See
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#NTSEC-RELEASE1.3.20 for
details. Probably unrelated, but something to fix anyway.
Regarding 1) :
[asimha@asimha-w2k02 /etc]$ mount
D:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts on /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts type system (binmode)

Looks fine (/tmp will be under the / mount).
is there a way to mount d:\cygwin\tmp as it's own file system
Yes. man mount.
or simply make cygwin use my desktop as tmp?
Ugh, you don't want to do that. For one, anytime you run configure
you'd get a lot of directories on your desktop. Unless you actually
*like* a cluttered desktop... ];-
You could mount your Windows profile's Temp directory as /tmp, though...
Make that one a user mount, though.
Thanks,
-ajay
Hope this helps,

RE: toggling DOS versus UNIX line ends
(the following is conjecture as I always install unix mode) I think this is handled by mount. ie you have things mounted in text mode not binmode if you remount your mounts as binmode you should be ok.

Problem with pthreads
I'm in qa, and I'm attempting to port a filesystem stress test written for Linux to Windows using cygwin. It uses pthreads to create many concurrent threads which read files out of a directory in various patterns. The thing is, I've found that with any more than 55 threads, pthread_join will hang indefinitely, for no apparent reason. Its also only the second call to pthread_join. Its being called from the creator thread and each of the threads were cancelled prior to being joined (and the cancel appears to work fine, as all disk activity stops). Its very strange. With 55 threads everything works exactly as expected, and with 56 it doesn't work at all. Is this a known issue, or am I doing something wrong? Thank you in advance if anyone is able to help me.

RE: [avail for test] libtool-devel-20030121-1
Thanks for this additional note. from a previous mail: So, it's important, Ralf, that your 'file' changes NEVER generate a false positive (e.g. saying something is an import lib when it is not). If your code generates a false negative (saying something is static when it's actually an import) -- because for false negatives, my slower code will catch it, and mark it import. There is only one open issue : 'file' reads the first 16K into a buffer. My currently proposal is to search for the string _dll_iname starting at the position of the first object file until the end of the archive (if it is less than 16KB) or at least the first 16 KB, if the archive is longer. How do you get `file` to do that??? if filesize 16kb, then...' etc? I'm not sure, ifc I have understand you right. file provides a variable nbytes, which will be HOWMANY, if the archive is bigger or the archive len otherwise. file.h:# define HOWMANY 16384 /* how much of the file to look at */ Currently I'm discussing the implementation with the 'file' author. That means, if the above mentioned string is found in that area, this archive will be identified as import library otherwise as static archive. That sounds okay. You'd get false negatives (very few), and no false positives. That's good -- false positives are really bad. False negatives, we let the slower code deal with. Because ar puts an offset table to each object file after it's ar header and a symbol cache, (the first symbol is a dll_iname symbol, there are some limitations. I've recognized, that the limit is by about 4070 object files. One can estimate, that this proposal will fail with import libs bigger than about 1-1.5 MB. For cygwin I've found this true for only one library: libcrypto.dll.a with 1.6 MB file size. Hmm...but, if the `file`-based test misses an import lib, the slower could could be used to catch it. And, that slower could *does* successfully detect that libcrypto.dll.a is an import lib, even though it only looks at the first 100 lines of the `nm` output. So, I see no problems there. me too For kde I have found four import libraries which exceeds this limit (the biggest import library is about 4.5 MB), but this is no problem, because definitly there will not be any further kde releases with import libraries. I assume you mean because you're going to link directly to the DLL. A request: in your packaged releases, include a symlink with the official import lib name: lib/libkdefoo.dll.a -- ../bin/cygkdefooX.dll Yes, i will use chucks-great-directly-linking-to-dll-compatibility-trick :-) BTW: Currently I'm using a hacked libtool with directly-linking-to-dll support, which works for mostly cases. It works great. May be you can benefit for a future libtool support.

Re: GPL Violation
Lawyer? Three years? We don't even have funds to buy pizza and beer let alone a lawyer. We are not in the software distribution business. That's what Red Hat is for. That is why I buy and recommend Red Hat. If RedHat distributed cygwin under GPL 3b, then you could redistribute that CD under 3c without needing to escrow sources. But RedHat distributes under 3a, so you do not have the option of 3c. Heck, *we* don't like the overhead of keeping track of sources for three years either! Our LUG is in the business of getting a bunch of techies together to swap stories, ideas, food, drink, and software. To that end, we just want to have something that our members can share with their friends and play with. A worthwhile purpose, but irrelevent as far as the GPL is concerned. You are distributing GPL'd binaries. You must distribute the sources (either through 3a or 3b) also. And if they want updates, support, or sources, they should call Red Hat. Unless you have a contract with RedHat that says that they agree to serve as a CD-ROM distributor for you, the GPL doesn't allow you to rely on us to provide sources for binaries you distribute. In fact, the version of cygwin we distribute is different than the net version, so we won't have the right sources anyway. but also encourages the members to go to the primary repository (cygwin.com) for the sources. The GPL forbids this. It allows *actual* costs, but no more. But be fair to yourself - figure out media costs, hours spent, shipping, overhead, etc. This can be quite significant. That's why I said hefty. The GPL allows the price to be whatever actual costs are. If it actually costs you a million dollars, charge a million dollars. What you can't do is artificially increase the fee just to discourage people from asking, or to profit from each sale. The GPL is quite clear on this: for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, Imagine if I put out a new CD a week with updates and tweaks. This turns into a major headache to keep track of which sources went with which CD, especially for three years. That's why most people (and I recommend this) just put the sources right on the CD with the binaries. GPL 3a is the least complex of your options. But if I'm required to maintain all those CDs, I want to be compensated to make it worth my time and effort. That is allowed by the GPL. The actual cost of paying someone for the labor required is certainly an actual cost, as is (I think) the actual overhead costs to escrow the sources. Is the LUG paying you by the hour for the time you work for them? If so, then the actual costs for your time may be passed on to the buyer. That is, from the few people that request the sources, I want to be able to quit my current job and retire from their payment. Well, assuming you can retire on getting paid to be a disk copier for a few hours. It would be cheaper to hire a student to do it part time. I don't think artificially inflating your hourly rate would make it past a judge ;-) And if you're doing it yourself on your own time, then you're not paying anyone, are you? My goal is to get more developers involved in Cygwin by showing them what Cygwin can do. Giving them a CD with pointers goes a long way to that end. Getting involved is more than just using the software. It also involves understanding the principles behind Free Software. It's important to comply with the GPL so that you can teach others about the GPL by example. -- 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/
Re: [rwcitek@alum.calberkeley.org: Re: GPL Violation]
Some comments: If they want the source from the LUG, they should contact us about prices. This is acceptable, but GPL 3b requires that you provide a *written* promise to that effect. IMHO it only needs to be sufficiently legal to be a binding contract - i.e. dated and authenticatable. How you acheive that is up your lawyer ;-) And (this is the fun part) it needs to be effective for three years, so keep a copy of that source cd, as you must ship the exact corresponding sources, not some random newer version. We therefore charge a hefty price to deliver the source in CD form. Charge is OK, hefty is not. This not only covers our time and production costs, The GPL allows this. but also encourages the members to go to the primary repository (cygwin.com) for the sources. The GPL forbids this. It allows *actual* costs, but no more. But be fair to yourself - figure out media costs, hours spent, shipping, overhead, etc. The GPL doesn't want you to suffer from this, but neither can the recipient suffer. -- 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/

Ajay,
Two WAGs:
1) Is your /tmp mount binary or text? If text, try remounting as binary.
Also see if adding binmode to your $CYGWIN helps.
2) This one's really wild, but I know Windews has this stupid dependence
on the name of the file. Try using the nametemplate trick (%s.doc, or
something), and see if it helps.
Igor
Hey thanks for the quick reply.
Regarding 2) it *is* a .doc if not the default windows handler would not
work for it.
Umm, yes, I'm slow today. However, the '' in your ls output
The file which starts with ~lldoc is the one word creates and has the wierd
permissions. If I touch a file I get asimha/None own/grp.
I also re-ran mkpasswd and mkgroup. Can't make this problem go away. I'm thinking
it is something to to with winword 2002 (part of office xp sp2).
-ajay
indicates that your /etc/{passwd,group} aren't up to date. See
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#NTSEC-RELEASE1.3.20 for
details. Probably unrelated, but something to fix anyway.
Regarding 1) :
[asimha@asimha-w2k02 /etc]$ mount
D:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts on /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts type system (binmode)
D:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type user (binmode)
D:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type user (binmode)
D:\cygwin on / type user (binmode)
c: on /cygdrive/c type user (binmode,noumount)
d: on /cygdrive/d type user (binmode,noumount)
z: on /cygdrive/z type user (binmode,noumount)
[asimha@asimha-w2k02 /etc]$ df -k
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on

z: 555604555604 0 100% /cygdrive/z
Looks fine (/tmp will be under the / mount).
is there a way to mount d:\cygwin\tmp as it's own file system
Yes. man mount.
or simply make cygwin use my desktop as tmp?
Ugh, you don't want to do that. For one, anytime you run configure
you'd get a lot of directories on your desktop. Unless you actually
*like* a cluttered desktop... ];-
You could mount your Windows profile's Temp directory as /tmp, though...
Make that one a user mount, though.
Thanks,
-ajay
Hope this helps,
Igor

Change in command line behavior between cygwin 1.3.18-1 and 1.3.19-1
Hi, I am hoping that someone can explain this change of behavior I have noticed that occurred between Cygwin version 1.3.18-1 and 1.3.19-1. In order to remain compatible with MKS, and also to keep version control as simple as possible we need to continue using ksh to execute our scripts. On Cygwin we have been using the pdksh ( http://www.cs.mun.ca/~michael/pdksh/ ). Here is a sample script: --- #!/bin/ksh set +u --- Using Cygwin 1.3.18-1, the script can be executed, apparently successfully, like so: $ d:/cygcheck/testscript Using Cygwin 1.3.19-1 and executing the script in the same manner yields the following error message: $ d:/cygcheck/testscript :unknown optionscript[2]: set: - I have attached 'cygcheck -s -v -r' output for both version 1.3.18 and .19 as setup on my computer.

I did not find that simply installing the inetd service required a reboot on my Win 2K or another Win XP machine to make it function correctly. Because, assuming you are logged in and just added Cygwin's bin directory to your system wide PATH environment variable it would not become effective until you reboot. Why? Because the system environment space is only built when you boot and because services are started from the system environement, the environment in effect *before* you log in. Why did it work for you? Probably because you already had Cygwin's bin in your systemwide PATH environment *before* you logged in and installed inetd as a service. -- 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/
Re: Symlink to script fails
I've been playing around with this, too. I have a Windows 'native' version of Perl 5.8.0 available to play with and when I used it, I got the same error as Andrew did. I'm not sure how you did your cmd.exe test? I tried it, in the form of a shebang file. It 'worked' but it did complain about the shebank line not being recognized. But that's a side issue, just curious;-) What I think is going on here has to do with how the exec for shebang does its thing. The interpreter named in the shebang line is exec'd, with the path name of the script file as an argument. I'd suggest that the Windows/DOS commands in question (my perl 5.8.0 and CQPerl) are unable to find the file, in the failing case, because they are reading a symlink, which they don't know how to deal with. So they are reading the content of the symlink, not what it points to. I'm not sure why cmd.exe isn't having the same problem. Perhaps there's something in Windows/DOS program linking that needs to be done to get them to work with .lnk files? Like the business of linking into a program the ability to do wild card expansion.

Re: upgrading broke cygwin?
Glen, I recently ran into similar problems that seemed tied to the 1.3.20-1 version of the .dll. If you could, please post the results of the following: 'ls -la /usr/bin' I want to verify what you have listed as the owners and groups for your binary files, and what permissions are assigned to them. It may be that you need to make some modifications to your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files (via mkpasswd and mkgroup). I found that if I added executable permissions to group for all files in /usr/bin, (chmod g+x /usr/bin/*) then which and similar commands were finally able to locate the files that were contained in my path. This was required even though I was a local administrator on the box and all of the files were owned by Administrators. Fully pathing a file would work fine, even though which wouldn't find it in the path (i.e. /usr/bin/cat would work but which cat.exe resulted in file not found). I still don't know if the problems I had were due to something I had improperly configured or not...anyone have any ideas? At any rate, I discovered that uninstalling everything and then doing a full install from an older source tree (v 3.1.18) resulted in a system without the symptoms mentioned above. I've stuck with that until I have a chance to experiment/test with 3.1.20 again to see what I may be doing wrong. Jared Glen Kaukola [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Hi, I recently ran setup.exe to upgrade my cygwin packages and this seems to have broken it. Now when I type make it tells me: /c: Can't open /c: No such file or directory If I create a /c then make works. It never did that before the upgrade though. Also, man and which don't seem to work right anymore. If I type 'man command' for any command it always tells me there's no entry. And if I type 'which command' or 'which command.exe' for any command that's in my path, it always tells me the commands aren't found. I tried completely reinstalling cygwin and I get the same exact behavior. Since there's not really any uninstall option the way I uninstalled it was by deleting my C:\Cygwin folder and then deleting anything that said cygnus from my registry. I'm hoping that's the correct way to do it? At any rate it didn't make any difference. My OS is Windows XP Pro if that matters. Any help or advice will be greatly appriciated.

RE: letters of the path have returned in numbers? Any idea why?
Common problem when you tweak your environment. You changed /bin/sh to a symbolic link to /bin/bash. Updating your packages reinstituted the /bin/sh binary. /bin/sh != /bin/bash. /bin/sh is ash.

Re: letters of the path have returned in numbers? Any idea why?
Great! I tested your suggestion with startx -e bash and it corrected the paths as the previous defaults. I am not going to use rxvt and I have uninstalled it, unless someone will tell any extra use of it compared with X-term.

Am I a candidate for rebase?
I think I need to rebase my .dll files to overcome a problem with perl on cygwin. Before I do that, I wanted to ask if it might mess up things, and some other questions below. The documentation implies Bad Things (TM) might happen. Plus, I am waiting for rebase 2.2-2 to appear on tishler.net... If I rebase, can I go back? (unrebase?) Can rebasing break things that I straightened out before? Should I use rebaseall? Should I rebase everything in cygwin/usr/bin and cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin simultaneously? What offset should I use? How do I avoid rvxt? Does my cygwin icon on the desktop avoid it?

The readme of rebase 2.2-1 says: WARNING Note it is *strongly* recommended that users only use rebaseall unless they *really* know what they are doing or are instructed by one of the Cygwin developers. /WARNING Use the following procedure to rebase your entire system: 1. shutdown all Cygwin processes 2. start bash (do not use rxvt) 3. execute rebaseall -v (in the bash window) The following is the rebaseall command line syntax: rebaseall [-b BaseAddress] [-o Offset] [-v] where: -b = base address used by rebase (default: 0x7000) -o = offset between each DLL rebased (default: 0x1) -v = verbose (default: off) If I do not use rebaseall, would I do something like: cd /usr ./bin/rebase -v bin/cygXpm-X4.dll bin/cygXpm-noX4.dll ... bin/tk84.dll \ X11R6/bin/cygPropList-0.dll X11R6/bin/libGL.dllX11 ... \ X11R6/bin/liboldX.dll X11R6/bin/libpsres.dll Thanks in advance.

installing lyx under cygwin, CYGPCRE.DLL
Hi, I am not terribly familiar with cygwin yet, but before the installation of lyx(using the cygwin setup.exe) has been finished, it said that the required CYGPCRE.DLL file can not be found. Where can I get it and do I need to install it? If I than start the unfinished lyx.exe in the directory cygwin\usr\local\bin it says that it misses the CYGINTL-2.DDL file although I have it in cygwin\bin. I would be extraordinary happy, if you can direct me and also if you could send me a reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank You __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: Re: upgrading broke cygwin?
I upgraded to the 1.3.20-1 version dll today and saw very similar and strange behavior. Some things wouldn't execute due to permissions errors, and other would execute from commandline but not from a script. What causes this, I don't know. I ran setup.exe again, found the base cygwin install, cycled through the keep/uninstall/revert until 1.9-19 version came up, and installed the older version. Everything seems to be working fine now. I wish I could help with what's broke, but I don't have a clue. There's a recent remark in the list that's there's no way to uninstall - the procedure above seems to work just fine.

vim 6.1.300-1 DOS line endings (newline expansion)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: I just set up Cygwin on a Windows 2000 SP3 machine, and chose DOS for Default file type. I have noticed that vim 6.1.300-1 generates Unix line endings on new files. I would like DOS line endings. I searched the Cygwin mailing list and the Vim site, but didn't find any clues. I don't know if this a vim, readline (.inputrc), cygwin, or and/or Windows issue. Any suggestions?
