LibXML2 and LibXSLT
Hello All, I have started working on these two packages but I have just taken a bit more responsability at work for the next two weeks. This means that my optimistic deadline of this week to release test packages will have to be put forward. I will continue to work on these more in the coming weeks but I doubt I will have done enough to release tests. If anyone would like to help me out :-) Please do...

Re: ATTN: Apache, Perl, Python, and Exim maintainers
to change the requires: dependency on 'gdbm' to 'libgdbm'. Thus, you don't need to do anything NOW, but you probably need to note this change so that your next release reflects the correct dependency. Thank you for the note. Perl-5.8 'final' release is coming soon, you're just in time ;) FWIW, I've just uploaded 1.8.3-1 as a 'test' release. If you wouldn't mind, I was wondering if you could try at least one of your builds of perl-5.8-pre against the new 1.8.3-1 version of gdbm -- I'd like to know if perl can link against it, and perl's testsuite ought to really put it thru its paces... However, I don't anticipate promoting 1.8.3-1 to 'current' very soon, so your perl-5.8 *release* should still depend on the old 1.8.0-5 version -- and your setup should say requires: libgdbm ... and NOT requires: libgdbm3 (and not requires: gdbm). I'll post another message to the main cygwin list about the new new gdbm package 'avail for test'. --Chuck

I would like the xinerama option for the development machine, I'm used to it on Windows g I would like to be able to run each monitor as a defined screen, then I can just direct a picture sequence to each channel - but that is work in progress anyway. -- Lester Caine - L.S.Caine Electronic Services

Yes, the KDE install replaced your XWin.exe with an older version that has SHM (shared memory) support built in.

-multiplemonitors and -multiwindow bug
I have two monitors, monitor 2 is physically left of monitor 1, monitor 1 is the primary monitor. (It has to be that way, unfortunately.) XFree86-xserv 4.2.0-28. In startxwin.sh, I have XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -multiplemonitors xterm xterm appears in the upper left hand corner of my primary monitor, it works fine. I then drag the xterm window left to the secondary monitor. It redraws fine. When I try to type in a command, my keyboard input does not show up in the xterm. I drag the xterm window back to the primary monitor. The xterm redraws, updating to show all of my keyboard input. While on the secondary monitor, the xterm is actually responding, but not displaying, e.g., # ls actually runs ls, and # xterm actually runs another xterm (which then pops up on my primary monitor, able to accept all input). -JT

PATH Problem and Solution
Guys, I just spend an hour or so installing XFree86/Cygwin with WindowMaker - works great, by the way - and I discovered an oddity. I'm certain this is a Windows/DOS issue, but here it is: This line in startxwin.bat can cause problems depending on the original contents of the PATH variable: SET PATH=.;%CYGWIN_ROOT%\bin;%CYGWIN_ROOT%\usr\X11R6\bin;%PATH% ...here's why: Some programs insert their directory into the PATH variable using the long file name (C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.1\bin for example), and some use the 8.3 DOS format (C:\PROGRA~1\ULTRAE~1). The DOS shell, when it expands the variable, %PATH%, leaves the spaces in the name, and the SET command thinks you've just given it an extra parameter. The solution is to change the base PATH in Windows to use the short, DOS 8.3 form (C:\PROGRA~1\Java\j2re1.4.1\bin in our case). You want to run the MSCONFIG command to do this. I hope this helps someone. Carey

We have, however, had a continuing stream of re-re-re-ports of rpm itself (back in the rpm-3.x days) and a dime-a-dozen better cygwin installation schemes based around the author's personal re-port of rpm. In each case, they created a short-lived ruckus on this mailing list, and eventually the forked rpm-based cygwin distro died from neglect. [The only proposal along these lines that ever made any sense to me was Dario Alcocer's idea from ~16 months ago, but unfortunately little came of that.] However, nobody (until now) has ported rpm-4.x to cygwin (AFIAK) -- so that's new. As rpm-4 is a near total rewrite of rpm IIRC, I'm sure it was a major effort. (which is why, among other reasons, I never bothered to update my port) Besides, rpm-4 requires db-4, and I wasn't going to support YA library package. Recently, however, Nicholas Wourms ported and begain maintaining db-2 and db-3 packages, and has db-4 packages ready to go -- which makes an rpm-4 port feasible. However, AFAIK the author of this new rpm-4 port built his own version of db-4 and linked to it (statically?). This is not horrible -- it follows Red Hat Linux's own practice: their primary installation tool should NOT have avoidable dynamic external dependencies. That's why the rpm-4 source tarball contains internal copies of both db and popt. However, we're not Red Hat Linux. Personally, I'd prefer that (a) Nicholas release his db-4 package g, and (b) the rpm package eventually accepted into the cygwin distribution be dynamically linked against cygdb-4.1.dll and cygpopt-0.dll. But, them as writes the code, gets to choose.

Re: Cygwin Cross compiler on Linux
FWIW, AFAIK cgf uses a cross-compiler to build mostly everything he builds
for the Cygwin distri (but cgf, please correct me if I'm wrong and/or
you've changed your habits).
There is a small patch to be applied to vanilla gcc to have it be
compatible with Cygwin's gcc (double alignment in structures). There's
been a discussion on that only last month. Because of this (and other)
reason(s), you really should use Cygwin CVS to build this.
cgf posted minimalist instructions recently (Jan or Feb, I don't recall -
but you can search the ml archives for it) that tells you how to do it,
with an explicit warning that he wasn't going to help out on it.
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-02/msg00074.html
note the last paragraph:
Before someone asks, I built the cross compiler myself, I'm not willing
to make it available for general distribution, and I'm not willing to
act as a mentor to other enterprising souls who want to do the same
thing. There are surely web sites out there which deal with this issue.

--with-gnu-ld --with-newlib
--with-headers=$HOME/cross/newlib-newest/newlib/libc/include

I'm currently trying to build the Cygwin version of gcc-2.95.3, but havn't
been able to get through that build yet... any help would be much
appreciated ;)
The most frustrating part is that I had this working at one point... I just
don't remember how I did it :(

Re: trying to compile emacs under cygwin
Robert Mecklenburg wrote: Static heap usage: 2129280 of 10648960, slop is 65536 -- 8320k wasted -- reset to 2194816k emacs: SHEAP_ADJUSTMENT needs to be modified to reduce memory waste! You increased the heap size, but it's outside the fuzz range -- you are over it by about 8 MB. Emacs would run, but the problem is that the binary would be a lot larger than it needs to be. Under Cygwin, this is an issue because of the way that fork() works. So what you have to do is increase SHEAP_ADJUSTMENT by enough that you end up in the comparison fuzz range. actually writes sheap.c, so I edit the script to change the -62 to: +#ifdef HAVE_X_WINDOWS +#define SHEAP_ADJUSTMENT 2194816 /* XEmacs does this dynamically */ +#else +#define SHEAP_ADJUSTMENT 2194816 /* XEmacs does this dynamically */ +#endif That's the correct thing to do. Edit the build script -- it patches the original emacs source for Cygwin. What you want to do is look at the message you get after you compile: Static heap usage: 2129280 of 10648960, slop is 65536 -- 8320k wasted -- reset to 2194816k And figure out what to set SHEAP_ADJUSTMENT to based on how the first two numbers compare. The message says that you used 2129280 bytes out of 10648960 available, so decrease SHEAP_ADJUSTMENT by (10648960 - 2129280). SHEAP_ADJUSTMENT will be some negative number because the base heap size is 8 MB, and emacs doesn't need anywhere near that. If it helps any, this piece of code hurts my head also -- I have no idea why it is set up to be so complicated. But it works! -- Joe Buehler -- 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 licensing [was: [re: tar and gzip]]
Good write-up. Is any portion of cygwin covered by the LGPL instead of the GPL? http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/lesser.html The LGPL explicitly allows proprietary software to be built on top of opensource libraries. TIA Greg -- Greg Freemyer Hi all! I wrote a small script in Python, but it requires two programs to run correctly: tar.exe and gzip.exe. Both are in CygWin package. And that's my question: can I bundle both programs and cygwin1.dll with my script? Script is free, but the program that the script comes with is not. -- Krzysiek 'Nelchael' Pawlik | C/C++, PHP, OpenGL, WinAPI [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Network Administrator - BAFH http://www.ps.nq.pl/pcfaq/ | http://www.ps.nq.pl/nelchael/ These are just my thoughts and I'm not a lawyer. It doesn't sound like your proprietary program is derived from or based on any Cygwin source code. Does it execute the Python script which executes tar.exe? If it does, I don't think even that would put it under the GPL. The GPL states that the act of running the Program is not restricted. Your program can execute Cygwin binaries without it becoming GPL software. If you link to Cygwin source code, then your program would be a derivative work under the GPL. However, I believe you could also link to another proprietary third party library without providing it's source code. For instance, you could link to a Microsoft library without being required to provide Microsoft source code. This is not true. It is ok to link with certain Microsoft DLLs because the GPL makes the following exception: However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable. However this exception does not apply to other DLLs, only those considered part of the operating system. Going one step further, you could put your proprietary code into a standalone DLL built using Microsoft tools. You could market the DLL as a separate product. The DLL would have no dependencies on any Cygwin source or binary. Your Cygwin based application could us it just like any other third party library without providing source code for the DLL. I don't see GPL language that would prevent this. From the GPL FAQ (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#LinkingWithGPL): You have a GPL'ed program that I'd like to link with my code to build a proprietary program. Does the fact that I link with your program mean I have to GPL my program? Yes. and: What is the difference between mere aggregation and combining two modules into one program? Mere aggregation of two programs means putting them side by side on the same CD-ROM or hard disk. We use this term in the case where they are separate programs, not parts of a single program. In this case, if one of the programs is covered by the GPL, it has no effect on the other program. Combining two modules means connecting them together so that they form a single larger program. If either part is covered by the GPL, the whole combination must also be released under the GPL--if you can't, or won't, do that, you may not combine them. What constitutes combining two parts into one program? This is a legal question, which ultimately judges will decide. We believe that a proper criterion depends both on the mechanism of communication (exec, pipes, rpc, function calls within a shared address space, etc.) and the semantics of the communication (what kinds of information are interchanged). If the modules are included in the same executable file, they are definitely combined in one program. *** - If modules are designed to run linked together in a shared address space, that almost surely means combining them into one program. - *** By contrast, pipes, sockets and command-line arguments are communication mechanisms normally used between two separate programs. So when they are used for communication, the modules normally are separate programs. But if the semantics of the communication are intimate enough, exchanging complex internal data structures, that too could be a basis to consider the two parts as combined into a larger program. and: I'd like to incorporate GPL-covered software in my proprietary system. Can I do this? You cannot incorporate GPL-covered software in a proprietary system. The goal of the GPL is to grant everyone the freedom to copy, redistribute, understand, and modify a program. If you could incorporate GPL-covered software into a non-free system, it
latex listings.sty not found
Here is an observation that makes me wonder if there is a bug in the latest tetex distribution. I broke my cygwin installation the other day by installing openssh (my fault, I was trying to isolate a problem which might have been caused by the ssh client). Afterwards, I uninstalled openssh I reinstalled cygwin and everything was swell. Later I went to build a latex document and got an error about not being able to find listings.sty. The document built fine before. Just to be sure, I resinstalled all of the tetex stuff and the problem remained. I believe as result of all of this, I ended up upgrading tetex (yay). I found /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/listings but it didn't have listings.sty. I found texmf/doc/latex/listings/README, read that, and then found I didn't have the .ins. So I went out and downloaded the listings package and installed it according to the directions, ran texhash and now I can use the listings package again. Everything is fine now.

Cygwin Newbie Question
Hi, I have installed Cygwin a few times over the past couple of days. For some reason, The /home and /dev directory, and the environment variables(eg. PATH)do not get set up properlly. When I use startxwin.bat at least the PATH variable is set up. Also for some reason the .bash_history file is in my c:\ directory, even though I installed cygwin in c:\cygwin. For now I have manually created the home directory and set the path. I would appreciate any pointers on how to have the installation go smoothly/where it is possibly going wrong.

newbie Q: list of files I need to tweak/create to run cygwin
Howdy Folks, I am completely new to linux/cygwin and read all the documentation, but still I don't quite understand how to setup the cygwin. So far I was able to install the cygwin software and tweaked the cygwin.bat file and created a home directory so that I can try some elementary commands. Ultimately I'd like to run MCNPX and GEANT (both are particle transport packages) on this platform, and I'd appreciate if anyone can tell me which files I need to tweak/create to have xwindow working. My extent of experience with unix is very shallow and I have never installed any unix software by myself. I just used what was installed for me by the sysadmin. I read User's Guide, FAQ and Installation Guide, but I still didn't have a good picture of what steps I need to take to have the operational platform.

Two GPL clarifications
I've talked to Red Hat's lawyers. 1) The interpretation that just providing a link to the sources is adequate is incorrect so we are correct in advising people that they need to provide sources for the binaries that they provide. This is so much of a well, duh that I felt embarrassed asking the question, especially when the answer is clearly laid out in the GPL FAQ. 2) We should be trying to get people to adhere to the GPL whenever we are aware of a violation, if for no other reason than that we need to establish the precedent of enforcing our license. Again, a well duh, but I thought it might help put some of this discussion to rest. The lawyer also went as far as to say that it doesn't take a lawyer to read a legal document and understand what it says. However, when you think about it, you really can't trust a lawyer's interpretation of a contract any more than you can mine. If lawyers were infallible then we wouldn't need judges and juries. So, you can continue the argument of You don't know what you're talking about all the way through the legal process until a verdict is rendered. Even then, there's no guaranteeing that the judge knows what *he's* talking about so we might need to appeal. My point is that if people aren't allowed to argue common sense interpretations and if we can't point to things like the FSF's GPL FAQ as an authority then we might as well not be discussing anything at all. For this mailing list, the interpretation of the GPL which we've been using for the last six years (since I've been following things) is the one that we will continue to use. I appreciate the efforts of people here who help to ensure that the GPL is enforced when they stumble over apparent transgressions. We should try to be non-confrontational when we bring issues to the attention of the well-meaning people who think they are open source advocates if they provide our binaries on their site. However, we still need to be insistent when it comes to helping them understand the facts of GPL life. For the record, I will block access here to anyone who advocates ignoring the GPL, anyone who stubbornly refuses to adhere to our GPL requirements, or anyone who rabidly insists that the FSF's interpretation of the GPL is incorrect. At the most such activities are counter to the goals of this project and at the least they're off-topic. An occasional thoughtful discussion on aspects of the GPL which are unclear would be slightly off topic here but I'm not going to slap anyone for raising such things. I like intellectual discussions about this kind of thing as long as people don't get too heated (is that possible with the GPL?) or too tedious. Be prepared for me to cc RMS in any discussions, though. However, if things to get out of hand, I'm perfectly willing to play the off topic card here since, clearly, this isn't the mailing list where important issues about the GPL will be decided. cgf -- 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: Mozilla 1.3 built on cygwin?
Having Mozilla itself running under Cygwin might not be useful to a lot of people but the fixes that Cygwin might have to go through to make this happen could pave the way for other X apps that come later. like we have encountered while porting KDE to cygin/xfree. I remember a very good example and this is Kdevelop. We have build an alpha release of kdevelop. Yes it runs mostly. You can configure, compile and debug an application with it, but you need a very very fast computer for a real production environment. I have tested it with a PIII/700MHz Toshiba Satellite Pro 4300 Laptop with 320 MB RAM and W2K. The result wasn't very joyfull. I don't know the exact reason(s), because there are several things involved, like process creation and forking, network, pipe and file io, graphic performance and so one (which are mostly identified by the cygwin developers), but it is very complicated to separate the influence and the fraction of each issue to identify the most annoying. :-( I can't prove a fact, that forking is the most anonying problem and there were some initial work from some people (I remember Chris Faylor, Chris January and other) to identify the problems and to implement a new copy-on-write semantic, which will be much faster, for example in http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-04/msg01071.html, but is issue seems to me as a very hard wall, which couldn't be broken by single people, because of it's complexitivity. I assume that this could only be fixed by a team of memebers with different skills. At first especially people are needed, which have the time and the knowledge to analyse the current state and all the needed thing, followed by some people with the skills to design a new implementation, which could be implemented than by the coders. For kde3 at first I've thought about replacing all fork() calls with native win32 calls, but recognized this as the wrong way, because this would start a never ending support story in every furture application. Unfortunally I haven't the skills to start this job, but perhaps there are other people with limited skills and time like me, who like to see this issues fixed, so I'm currently hoping, that this team will be existant sometime in the future. A good starting point would be, if someone could give an overview about the background, the problems and possible designs. Other issues are already fixed. I remember the ld auto-import stuff, which was initiated with the porting of kde/cygwin and the linking time problem with big libraries/application, which was fixed by the direct-linking-to-dll feature. See the related thread in this list. The KDE3/cygwin release on which I'm currently working will be based on this ld features, which reduces the linking time of more than 50-70%. (For small libraries this isn't a very strong factg, but it makes a different for big libraries, if the linking time is 3 minutes or 40 seconds). libtool support for this direct-linking-to-dll feature is in work, so that other package could use this in the future. (implied, that this functionaly is general accepted for libtool). Another point is the cygwin ipc support. For the kde3 port I have planned to use the cygwin ipc support, not the deprecate cygipc packages like I've done for kde2, but unfortunally is seems to be broken in current cvs. (I can't get running this stuff, it fails in shmget. It seems to be caused by the coming 64 bit support, but I'm not sure). Additional I remember Robert Collins saying last year, that there is some outstanding work to do, but I can't say what. ipc-support is needed for pixmap caching, which will improve the graphical performance. KDE uses also the Xfree Xshm support, which isn't enable by default by the cygwin/xfree releases (because of the deprecated cygipc package), so a patched release is needed for kde. (KDE will work without, but with lesser performance). If xfree would use the cygwin ipc support, this patched release would be obsolate. I'm very interested to get this stuff running and I'm able to give some feedback about performance and general functionality in relation to the functionality kde requires.

I'm afraid I'm about to leave for the weekend, but hopefully someone else on the list can pick this up. Certainly can. /proc is a virtual filesystem and doesn't need to have a directory in the root for it to be accessed by Cygwin. The only real advantage for me having this directory is that I can see it in some of my file/dir related utilities. /dev/file is a virtual file (fhandler), but AFAIK this will be changing soon'ish.

Unfortunately I can't work on this anymore as I have seen the fork () code in WinNT POSIX. That code is the kind of thing it would be nice to have in Cygwin. I can't compare perfomance, however, as WinNT POSIX has significantly different overheads to Cygwin. I am trying to persuade Andrew to release his code under another license since non-GPL compatible open source programs can't currently be linked against it. If he does choose to do this and the new license is GPL compatible I will look at this again. I am also willing to talk anyone else through the process of writing a copy-on-write fork () implementation. The problem in KDE is that you can't just optimise away the fork/exec pairs using vfork/spawn, because the fork is abstracted in a class and you don't know what the calling code's intentions are. I also am working on a native exec () implementation that doesn't spawn a new process. However I don't think this will give any significant speed-up over CreateProcess and I doubt very much you will ever see it in Cygwin.

Bug in select/read with serial tty
In a nutshell - select does not alway block correctly when no data is
available on a serial tty.
This is not an agetty problem, but it experienced while using agetty.
While trying to use agetty on Win9x platforms I ran into a problem. For
some reason, when I connected to the machine running agetty either with a
direct nul modem cable or a modem, I was forced to occasionally type 1 more
character to get things to happen. For instance, agetty would read my login
id and exec login. login would prompt for my password. If I typed
passwd\r. Nothing would happen. The reason is that the '\r' is the first
of a pair of characters. If I then typed any character, the password would
be processed and I would be logged in. Once I was logged in, if I typed
ls -l\r I would see the echoed characaters after only every second
character. I would then immediately see the output of the command because
the \r was the second of a pair. The problem is not specific to agetty. I
think it is either a problem with select or read.
Attached is a program that illustrates the problem. Here is a portion of
the code edited for this message that will experience the problem. Once
connected, I simply send one character at a time. The initial call to
select blocks until I send a character. FD_ISSET() returns true so the
character is read and echoed. (in agetty, it is not echoed, it is sent to
the pty) . After looping, select is called again. The expected behavior,
as occurs with WinXP, would be for the select to block until I send more
data. It does not. FD_ISSET() returns true and the read blocks until I
press another character. This blocking read is what forces me to type
another character when using agetty. By sending at least one more
character, the read returns and the echoed data from the pty is read.
/* ... /dev/ttys0 was open for rw as f */
for (;;) {
fd_set ibits, obits, ebits;
FD_ZERO(ebits); FD_ZERO(ibits); FD_ZERO(obits);
FD_SET(f, ibits); /* f is the tty opened for rw */
if ((n = select(f+1, ibits, NULL, ebits, 0)) 0) {
if (errno == EINTR)
continue;
exit(0);
}
if (n == 0) {
sleep(5);
continue;
}

fcc = read(f, fibuf, sizeof(fibuf));

Hi - Look here (you probably already have): http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html You are right, I used -program-suffix=-3.2.2. You need to be careful so that it finds only 3.2.2 files. Make sure you modify your path so that all of the 3.2.2 stuff is ahead of the normal stuff (both *.h files and libraries). Do a find /usr -name *3.2.2* -print to see all of the new files you need to be aware of. Once you set up this stuff in your build file (I have been using ant), gcc 3.2.2 works fine. I have been using it for JNI stuffno problems. Since I got this working, I haven't messed with the --prefix option.

Yes, an RPM-based cygwin is feasible -- but the last time I looked, most of the competitors said something like: First do (X) to install a basic cygwin system, and then use this tarball of rpm.exe, run rpm --initdb, then use rpm to install and/or update other parts of your system Where (X) is unpack a tarball or piggyback off setup.exe and only install these three packages or somesuch. While *feasible,* that's not really *practical* as a complete distribution. Further, none of the schemes out there were capable of updating the cygwin dll itself -- because rpm.exe uses it. Nor could they update any other in-use files. However, things may have changed over the years. I dunno, and I'm too lazy to check now. :-) Personally, I'd welcome an official setup-installable package providing rpm. Here's why: 1) we'd probably see a number of folks -- those who don't want to permanently maintain a package, but want to provide it for people to use -- who'd choose to pack their contribution as rpms. (Preferably, these ad-hoc rpms would go somewhere like /usr/local or /opt/ or ANYWHERE except /usr and /usr/X11R6/ ). 2) as these numbers grow, folks might begin wondering how to (and provding code for) help setup.exe and rpm coexist -- updating each other's databases, maybe even linking setup.exe against librpm, etc etc. Of course, this requires that someone really really smart figure out the best way to create a native port of librpm -- that can still figure out where /var/cache/rpm and /etc and suchlike are really located... On the other hand, that was Robert's idea behind providing the dpkg stuff in setup-installable form, and the above sequence didn't happen for deb... --Chuck -- 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/

[avail for test] gdbm, libgdbm3, libgdbm-devel 1.8.3-1
I've uploaded a new version of gdbm as a test release. This is based on the official 1.8.3 FSF release which has seen some major changes. While existing code should compile against the new library without (many) changes, the API of the library has been reorganized, which means thtat the DLL is now named cyggdbm-3.dll and not simply cyggdbm.dll. Thus, both the old DLL and the new DLL can coexist -- which is why the new DLL is in a new package (libgdbm3 instead of libgdbm) So, old dll package: libgdbm-1.8.0-5, contains cyggdbm.dll new dll package: libgdbm3-1.8.3-1, contains cyggdbm-3.dll (and more) A word about the reorganization: the compatibility wrapper functions that provided gdbm's dbm and ndbm personalities have been moved to the gdbm_compat library. Thus, the main library from 1.8.3-1 are much smaller than the one from 1.8.0-5. This means the cyggdbm_devel-3.dll is also in the libgdbm3 package. Further, it means that any application code that USED the dbm or ndbm personalities, now needs to link with -lgdbm_compat -lgdbm and not just -lgdbm. Most programs don't use the compatibility personalities, and can simply continue to link only against -lgdbm. Also, gdbm is now build using libtool, so we have .la files now -- which should make autotool'ed client applications happy. To test these libs, just run setup and choose the experimental version of gdbm. --Chuck -- 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/
