According to Corinna Vinschen on 7/2/2007 12:04 PM:
 In the meantime, as long as the GPLv3 is not OSI certified (which
 shouldn't take long), Red Hat will not enforce the GPLv2-only state of
 Cygwin on the back of GPLv3 packages.  So, tar 1.18 can stay in the
 distro if Eric trusts Red Hat not to sue him.  The same applies to
 every other maintainer of every other package which goes v3.

OK, I'm putting some (hopefully well-founded) trust in Red Hat, as well as
in the OSI certification process.  Thanks for the clarification; I'll
leave tar 1.18 available for download, in spite of its current (but
temporary) legal status.

Decimal float and the Cygwin build of GFortran.

2007-07-04 Thread Angelo Graziosi


I have build GFortran under Cygwin configuring with:

 ./configure --prefix=${prefix_dir} \
 --enable-languages=c,fortran \
 --enable-bootstrap \
 --enable-libgomp \
 --enable-threads \
 --enable-sjlj-exceptions \
 --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs \
 --enable-nls \
 --enable-werror \
 --enable-checking=release \
 --disable-libmudflap \
 --disable-shared \
 --disable-win32-registry \
 --with-system-zlib \
 --without-included-gettext \
 --without-x 


The build gives, a few times, this warning:


---
...
checking for valgrind.h... no
configure: WARNING: decimal float is not supported for this target
   ^^^
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
...
---

A few months ago this did not happen (same building procedure).


So, have you an idea about this ?


TIA,

  Angelo.

Angelo Graziosi wrote:

 ./configure --prefix=${prefix_dir} \

According to the documentation you should not do this (build in the same
dir as the source.)

 A few months ago this did not happen (same building procedure).

The warning is correct because libdecnumber is only supported on linux. 
See e.g. http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-06/msg00079.html or
libdecnumber/configure.ac:

  case $target in
powerpc*-*-linux* | i?86*-*-linux* | x86_64*-*-linux*)
  enable_decimal_float=yes
  ;;
*)
  enable_decimal_float=no
  ;;
  esac

If it didn't print the warning in the past I don't think you can
conclude much of anything, other than the lack of a warning was a bug
that was fixed.  Whether or not the library actually works on Cygwin if
you force it to build is something you'd have to determine through
experimentation, however it seems clear that its maintainers don't
expect it to, or at least haven't tested it there.

But if the program is compiled with -mno-cygwin those variables do not

Just asking in general, but are you related to the people doing the
cygwin release on the gfortran web page? I downloased the exe about 2
weeks ago and it did nothing. Yes, NOTHING! gfortan --version gave the
version but a gfortran complile gave no errors and no executable. I went
back to a version I had a year ago on another laptop and it worked fine.
Did I just have a bad snapshot?

EXE ? If you mean 'gfortran-windows-20070612.exe', it is for MINGW not

I mean gfortran-4.3-Cygwin-i686.tar.bz2 (I may have renamed it. I can
not remember). That gives executables in /usr/local/gfortran. 

Typing gfortran -v gives after compile info:-

gcc version 4.3.0 20070512 (experimental)

so we are talking about the same version. Typing say:-

/usr/local/gfortran/bin/gfortran -o actvte.exe actvte.f

gives nothing - no executable and no errors. 

The 4.2 version, as I said works. It gives the version:-

gcc version 4.2.0 20060808 (experimental)

and typing:-

/home/irun/bin/gfortran -o actvte.exe actvte.f

which points to that version works fine and gives the executable.  I really do 
not
understand this.

Thanks for your interest.

  Then try adding -v to the command-line when you try the build as well.  It

You should ask this on the gfortran mailing list, not here.  The wiki
pages state this.

And your problem is exactly what you'd expect to happen if you don't
have the correct mpfr and gmp libs installed.  They are used by the
sub-processes (cc1, cc1plus, f951) but not the front-end drivers (gcc,
g++, gfortran), which means --version or --help would work but no actual
compiling.  The wiki also says this.  Install the required packages
(libgmp3 and libmpfr1).

A new version of the lftp package is available in the Cygwin
distribution.  lftp is a sophisticated file transfer program and
ftp/http client.  It
supports multiple network protocols, offers tab completion, command
history, job control, and bookmarks, can mirror sites and transfer
multiple files in parallel, and keeps trying interrupted operations
until it can complete them.

Changes in version 3.5.11-1:
* New upstream bugfix release.  The previous Cygwin release was
  version 3.5.9-1; see http://lftp.yar.ru/news.html for a list of
  changes since then.

It depends on what you mean by hidden.  Cygwin is a windows application
so obviously it can get to them as could any other windows application
which tried hard enough.  Cygwin just doesn't bother trying to interpret
them.

I suppose it is possible that we'd consider a nicely written, minimally
intrusive patch to use these but I'm not 100% certain that it is even
possible to do this cleanly given the way the environment variable/path

  Just asking in general, but are you related to the people doing the

  version but a gfortran complile gave no errors and no executable. I went
  back to a version I had a year ago on another laptop and it worked fine.
  Did I just have a bad snapshot?
 
 You should ask this on the gfortran mailing list, not here.  The wiki
 pages state this.

I realise that and only mentioned it as it came up here.
 
 And your problem is exactly what you'd expect to happen if you don't
 have the correct mpfr and gmp libs installed.  They are used by the
 sub-processes (cc1, cc1plus, f951) but not the front-end drivers (gcc,
 g++, gfortran), which means --version or --help would work but no actual
 compiling.  The wiki also says this.  Install the required packages
 (libgmp3 and libmpfr1).

I'll try doing that, but why does:

gcc version 4.2.0 20060808 (experimental)

work. Have things changed with these libraries since last year. This
was, BTW, I relative new install of cyqwin. I just copied the gfortran
and gcc4 executables over from an older machine. I think this is a
cyqwin question.

No, it's not a Cygwin question.  Yes, gcc has changed.  gcc 4.3.x now
requires/uses gmp and mpfr in all the front ends, whereas previously
they were only used in the fortran front end in 4.2.x and not at all
prior to that.

vista rsh problem

2007-07-04 Thread goetz fischer


hello,

i know this has been discussed but sadly not enough.
i just used a nightly dll and the error message is gone but it still 
doesn't work. the prompt just keeps empty like it's working.

to be clear this is about using rsh with cygwin on vista.

attached the cygcheck ...


thanks in advance

 For using local named pipes you don't need winsock anyway, and for
 remote connections you should use Cygwin sockets.

And mixing both is quite difficult.  Anyhow, I'll only enable cygwin
sockets and hope the latency is sufficient for users.


I still feel that if you had latency problems using TCP it was either
a bug in your program, or a bug in your protocol (you are the author
of the protocol, right?), or a bug in cygwin. Is there a way I can
investigate this without needing special braille hardware (like, is
there some kind of dummy driver that sends the braille to the
console or something). Or, do you have a simplified testcase that
exhibits this latency you are concerned about?

Version 3.8-2 of brltty has been uploaded.

It is a background process (daemon) providing access to the Windows
Console for a blind person using a refreshable braille display.

--  brltty-3.8-2 -- 2007-07-03 ---
Update to subversion 3090 for braille font support.

Heavy #ifdef WINDOWS - #ifdef __MINGW32__ to use cygwin emulation layer for
everything.

Split into libbrlapi, libbrlapi-devel, python-brlapi, tcl-brlapi, and xbrlapi

Updated:lftp-3.5.11-1

2007-07-04 Thread Schulman . Andrew

A new version of the lftp package is available in the Cygwin
distribution.  lftp is a sophisticated file transfer program and
ftp/http client.  It
supports multiple network protocols, offers tab completion, command
history, job control, and bookmarks, can mirror sites and transfer
multiple files in parallel, and keeps trying interrupted operations
until it can complete them.

Changes in version 3.5.11-1:
* New upstream bugfix release.  The previous Cygwin release was
  version 3.5.9-1; see http://lftp.yar.ru/news.html for a list of
  changes since then.

Andrew E. Schulman
