[RFU] lftp-3.7.3-2
I've packaged a new release of lftp. This release corrects two packaging errors. Note that one of the errors was in setup.hint, so please reupload that. Thanks, Andrew. wget \ http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin-1.5/lftp/setup.hint \ http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin-1.5/lftp/lftp-3.7.3-2.tar.bz2 \ http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin-1.5/lftp/lftp-3.7.3-2-src.tar.bz2

On the same row inside the setup.exe chooser where you see the Bin? checkbox already checked for that package, simply click the Src? checkbox next to it. The package defaults to binary-only installation so you have to explicitly ask for source if you need it. ..mark -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

massive heap problems with cygwin 1.7.0
Hi, I am trying to make use of the UTF wide character support in cygwin 1.7 and tried to give it a shot. Until now I am almost unable to do anything because I constantly run into heap problems, like: 5 [main] ?

Because it's not part of the default installation; you need to specifically select it in the package chooser page of setup.exe.

Please suggest why it does not find ssh on my installation. It's simply not there, and looking at the list of installed packages, it's very clear that despite your belief to the contrary, all packages were *not* chosen on the package chooser page. It has to be the case that you've misunderstood what setup.exe is showing; if it just says Default next to the package categories, that means Install only the default packages from within this category. You need to expand the displays and find openssh (probably easiest to click the View button until it says full, then it will be in alphabetical order), and make sure that in the New column there is a version number displayed, rather than skip or anything else.

setup.exe --quiet-mode
I know there have been lots of discussions on unattended setups, and i'm taking my crack at getting one set up, but ran into a frustrating situation using quiet mode: When running setup.exe with -q if there are in-use files encountered, setup will still pop up the dialog telling you so and sit there and wait forever until you click the OK button. This clearly is not unattended. It would be better if it could just exit with a specific error code that you could read and take some action (restart). I'm sure I could just choose the --no-replaceonreboot (-r) option to bypass the dialog box, but that would probably lead to an unstable install. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Re: setup.exe --quiet-mode
Rob wrote: until you click the OK button. This clearly is not unattended. It would be better if it could just exit with a specific error code that you could read and take some action (restart). I agree that it's not correct, but I disagree about the conclusion. It should silently schedule any inuse files for replacement on the next reboot, and continue. Bailing in the middle of the process of unpacking files is going to leave a horribly broken system: only some packages that were selected are unpacked, others are not; and no postinstalls were run. You could have missing DLLs, things not installed properly, etc. At least if you schedule for replacement you can continue unpacking everything else, and so the possible scenarios for a broken system are much narrower and rarer. Moreover if the user doesn't know to check the exit status, they will have no idea of the level of brokenness. I also want to point out that unattended installs are meant for people that know what they're doing, they are not meant for casual users. In fact it's not even a officially supported mode of installation -- if it works for you great, but it's not a primary feature. Thus we're way off in the woods here, in that running an unattended install and also not closing all apps is kind of combining two already sketchy things.

You always have to install the packages for the apps you want if they aren't in the Base set (which is only a very small subset of packages that are available with the Cygwin distribution.) If you don't want to look for the packages you need, or you're not interested in installing entire categories of packages, then you might want to consider just installing all the packages. This will could make it easier for you. As for X, since that's a category, you can just choose to install the category. If you can't figure out how to do this, you can always follow the direction in the Cygwin-X User's Guide. http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ug/setup-cygwin-x-installing.html Reading the documentation and FAQs when you have a question can be very informative. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

PATCH: Re: cygutils/cygstart - wait till task terminates - also pass on exit status
The recent patch sumbitted by Barry Kelly to add an option to cygstart
to have it wait for the process to terminate is most useful. However it
would be more useful still if it were to return the exit status of the
process in this case.
The attached patch implements this small addition and should be applied
on top of Barry Kelly's.
