New VIM version 7.3.002-1
Hi Yaakov, I have prepared a new release of vim, 7.3.002-1, so it's the new 7.3 release from yesterday with its first two patches. The new vim release is linked against ncursesw: export CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/include/ncursesw' export LDFLAGS='-L/usr/lib/ncursesw' ./configure \ --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --libexecdir='$(prefix)/lib' \ --localstatedir=/var \ --datadir='$(prefix)/share' \ --mandir='$(prefix)/share/man' \ --infodir='$(prefix)/share/info' \ --with-features=huge \ --enable-gui=no \ --without-x \ --with-compiledby=http://cygwin.com/; I also changed the requires line in setup.hint: requires: alternatives libncurses10 libncursesw10 libiconv2 libintl8 I'm keeping the libncurses10 in for now, for the sake of the old vim version. You can find the source and binary packages on sourceware under ~corinna/x/vim/ Please ping me when you finished the corresponding gvim release. Thanks, Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
[PATCH] setup: be less scary about missing dependencies
The Unmet Dependencies Found message on the Resolve Dependencies
page may mislead people into thinking that there's a problem with
setup.exe or packaging, when in fact it's a routine step now. Also,
the message box that appears when choosing not to select required
packages overstates its case a little bit. So this patch tweaks both.
Andy
ChangeLog:
* res.rc (IDD_PREREQ): Say Resolving Dependencies instead of
Unmet Dependencies Found
* prereq.cc (PrereqPage::OnNext): Tone down message box about
missing dependencies.

package conflict: cygwin and sunrpc
Both cygwin-1.7.6-1 and sunrpc-4.0-3 install
/usr/include/rpc/{types,xdr}.h. Depending on which package is installed
last, this causes spurious compilation failures, because the two
implementations differ on whether they need sockaddr_in to be declared.
Now that xdr functions have been subsumed into cygwin proper, is it
time to obsolete sunrpc? On the other hand, libvirt wants to #include
rpc/rpc.h, which only sunrpc provides; is it time to provide that
header as part of base cygwin?

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: cygwin-1.7.6-1
Hi Cygwin friends and users, I just released 1.7.6-1. This release fixes a bunch of bugs, and introduces a few new features. It also contains a change which will affect calling native Win32 API functions from Cygwin applications. I would like to urge you to have another look into the documentation at http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/cygwin-ug-net.html. It contains a couple of improvements and the description for new features and changes from old behaviour. What's new since Cygwin 1.7.5: == - Add new mount options dos and ihash to allow overriding Cygwin default behaviour on broken filesystems not recognized by Cygwin. See http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table and http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mount - Add new mount option bind to allow remounting parts of the POSIX file hirarchy somewhere else. See http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table and http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mount - Ttys and ptys are handled as securable objects using file-like permissions and owner/group information. chmod and chown now work on ttys/ptys. A new mechanism is used to propagate pty handles safely to other processes, which does not require to use Cygserver. - Pass on coresize settings made with setrlimit(2). This allows shells to disable creating stackdump files in child processes via `ulimit -c 0' in bash or `limit coredumpsize 0' in tcsh. - Locale categories contain all localization strings additionally as wide-char strings. locale(1) prints these values just as on Linux. nl_langinfo(3) allows to fetch them. See file:///usr/include/langinfo.h - New interfaces mkostemp(3) and mkostemps(3). See file:///usr/include/stdlib.h - New virtual file /proc/filesystems. - clock_gettime(3) and clock_getres(3) accept CLOCK_MONOTONIC. - Several small additions to header files. What changed since Cygwin 1.7.5: - Cygwin handles the current working directory entirely on its own. The Win32 current working directory is set to an invalid path to be out of the way. This affects calls to the Win32 file API (CreateFile, etc.). See http://cygwin.com/htdocs/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#pathnames-win32-api - Change the way a process is made process group leader in case we're started from a non-Cygwin process. This isn't foolproof and may need more work. - Workaround a BLODA problem in rename(2) which otherwise results in annoying errors. - Add more workarounds for broken filesystems which either don't grok reopening a file by handle (NWFS) or which are not capable of handling filenames with leading spaces or trailing dots or spaces (NWFS, Netapp). - Don't try to evaluate reparse points (junctions) on remote filesystems as symlinks. - Improve performance of stat and a few other functions. ls(1) should be up to 30% faster on some drives. - Speed up signal delivery slightly. - Improve error output in strace. - cygwin_conv_path now drops the \\?\ prefix from short paths it returns with CCP_POSIX_TO_WIN_W. Bugfixes since Cygwin 1.7.5: - Fix problem where pseudo-relocs were getting applied twice, resulting in a crash. - Fix a crash when accessing /proc/registry* - Avoid that connect on a not yet established AF_LOCAL/AF_UNIX socket misinterprets the socket file as non-socket. - Fix stdin/out/err handle permissions when called from a non-Cygwin process. - Fix codeset problem in internal handling of process name. - Fix abbreviated month names for japanese and korean locale. - Fix calls to gettimeofday after call to settimeofday. - Fix REG_MULTI_SZ handling in /proc/registry* - Honor cygwin username even if it only differs by case from Windows username. - Fix potential memory leak when accessing // or //server directories. - Fix using a wrong handle when checking for files inaccessible to current user. - Fix erroneous handling of devices in path checking. - Fix potential crash in exec(2) if parent uses file locking. - Return useful error code when writing beyond free space on disk. - Fix longstanding bug where pipe() would inappropriately reuse open fd's. - Fix several signal races which caused SEGVs. - Fix long-standing bug when trying to open an already opened pipe via /proc/$PID/fd/... - Fix a potential crash when calling mount -a. - Fix bug in math functions lround(), llround(), lrint(), llrint().

1.7.5 - Invoking excel/word using vbscript in ssh session from Linux
Hi, I am starting SSH session from a Linux box to CYGWIN on Windows XP. In this session I call a vbscript which invokes MS word or Excel 2007 to export file to PDF. The command is: ssh -n -T winu...@windownode csscript xls2pdf.vbs xls_file_path pdf_file_path or ssh -n -T winu...@windownode csscript doc2pdf.vbs doc_file_path pdf_file_path I have already passwordless login setup using ssh-keygen and authorized_keys. The script starts Word and Excel as I can see the corresponding process in the Task Manager. But it seems both Word and Excel are hanging and doing nothing. If I use wsscript instead of csscript, the wsscript process can be found in Task Manager, but no word or excel, so wsscript is hanging. There are several messages like this in the mailing list, but no resolution. Can some one help?

Any idea why that's saying yes when apparently it isn't writable? I tried your script and it works fine for me. If I'm running as admin in a UAC-restricted shell, the test fails as expected. The problem is, we don't know anything about your environment, Barry. cygcheck output as requested by http://cygwin.com/problems.html would be helpful, perhaps. As is getfacl/cacls output for the /c/Documents and Settings/All Users/Start Menu/Programs directory. Is there a proper way for a postinstall script to find out whether it's an install for all users or Just Me? Hmm, afaik no. You could try to write to All Users first and if that fails, write to the user's own Programs. Or, you could combine this with a call to `id -G' and test if the group 544 is in the users supplementary group list. But, maybe we should define a couple of useful, installation-specific arguments for postinstall scripts and change setup accordingly?

Re: diff /usr/include/endian.orig.h /usr/include/endian.h endian.h.diff
Pedro, first of all, did you read http://cygwin.com/contrib.html? Especially the Before you get started section. For this patch, given that it is just a bunch of rather obvious defines, I don't think we have to treat the patch as significant. However, please don't use _BSD_SOURCE. The newlib/Cygwin headers are not set up like the Linux headers and the big bunch of definitions from /usr/include/features.h are not available so far. The _BSD_SOURCE define is not honored or set anywhere right now. What you can do is to use _POSIX_SOURCE. So, if you're going to use #ifndef _POSIX_SOURCE instead, and if you're creating a ChangeLog entry in the correct ChangeLog entry format (see the ChangeLog file), then I guess we can check it in.

I can not reproduce your problem. I used server\\path\\file
unchanged, as well as valid server and share names and just a
non-existant file name. In both cases the script prints false.
And it prints true for an existing file, just as expected.
Hm, I can reproduce it and it's even simpler, no perl involved:

Here's no server called server.
I can't reproduce, but I'm already running Cygwin 1.7.6. I have a vague
memory that we already had a report along these lines and that I patched
this at one point... I *think* that's what is successfully hidden
behind the Fix erroneous handling of devices in path checking. message

endless problems with SSHD - bug ??
running cygwin 1.7.6; trying to copy files from a win2k wkstn to a win2k server. running within a windows domain; but not using domain for authentication; using public keys. I have read every bit of content I can find, and can't find any answers to my problems. I: 1) HAVE installed sshd with the host-config script 2) rebaseall peflagsall after last install/update 3) have checked EVERY entry in any conf file I can think of/locate Maybe I should start with what I want, and where I'm at. It's the pursuit of what I want that has led me down DOZENS of tangential problematic paths. I simply want to copy files from 1 pc to another using a script initiated by either a user or cron entry. Ideally this would happen using scp into a chroot'ed environment. I currently have sshd working perfectly - IF I ONLY ssh to a shell. pub key's work great, no need to type a password - lovely!! Things start falling apart as soon as I try to do anything moving toward my goal. first off, I have not been able to get the chroot env to work, and I can find no doc's or examples on EXACTLY what should be the entry for that line in the conf file (or what permissions should be). failing that - I decided to get scp or sftp going. if I try $ sftp u...@host, I am simply presented with connection closed. Here's the log from that attempt: BEGIN LOG excerpt debug2: userauth_pubkey: authenticated 1 pkalg ssh-rsa Accepted publickey for als from 192.168.1.156 port 4898 ssh2 debug1: monitor_child_preauth: als has been authenticated by privileged process debug1: Entering interactive session for SSH2. debug1: server_init_dispatch_20 debug1: server_input_channel_open: ctype session rchan 0 win 2097152 max 32768 debug1: input_session_request debug1: channel 0: new [server-session] debug1: session_new: session 0 debug1: session_open: channel 0 debug1: session_open: session 0: link with channel 0 debug1: server_input_channel_open: confirm session debug1: server_input_global_request: rtype no-more-sessi...@openssh.com want_rep ly 0 debug1: server_input_channel_req: channel 0 request subsystem reply 1 debug1: session_by_channel: session 0 channel 0 debug1: session_input_channel_req: session 0 req subsystem subsystem request for sftp debug1: subsystem: exec() /usr/sbin/sftp-server -l DEBUG debug2: fd 3 setting TCP_NODELAY debug2: fd 8 setting O_NONBLOCK debug2: fd 7 setting O_NONBLOCK debug1: Received SIGCHLD. debug1: session_by_pid: pid 1540 debug1: session_exit_message: session 0 channel 0 pid 1540 debug2: channel 0: request exit-signal confirm 0 debug1: session_exit_message: release channel 0 debug2: channel 0: write failed debug2: channel 0: close_write debug2: channel 0: send eow debug2: channel 0: output open - closed debug2: notify_done: reading debug2: channel 0: read=0 rfd 8 len 0 debug2: channel 0: read failed debug2: channel 0: close_read debug2: channel 0: input open - drain debug2: channel 0: ibuf empty debug2: channel 0: send eof debug2: channel 0: input drain - closed debug2: channel 0: send close debug2: channel 0: rcvd close Received disconnect from 192.168.1.156: 11: disconnected by user debug1: do_cleanup END log I read an article saying maybe my motd is causing sftp to fail, so I removed it to no avail.

Upgrading to cygwin 1.7.6 vs gcc 4.5
I've installed the experimental gcc 4.5 packages (because that's the version I'm using in all my other development environments, and it's nice not to have to target multiple compiler versions any more), but now that cygwin dll 1.7.6 is out, I can't seem to find a way to upgrade cygwin without also downgrading gcc. In the installer, if I select Current I get the new cygwin but the old gcc, while if I select Experimental, it keeps the new gcc but doesn't offer me the new cygwin. At the moment I'm sticking with the old cygwin, because the gcc upgrade is more important to me than the cygwin upgrade.

The fact that your owner is mkgroup-l-d is probably a hint - my guess is that cygwin is returning -1 because you haven't set up your user database correctly, rather than an actual device number. If that's the case, then cygwin could probably be fixed (device major/minor node numbers need not depend on whether the user database is set up correctly). At any rate, Cygwin does not necessarily use the same major/minor node numbers as Linux. Any use of mknod outside of creating named pipes is _highly_ platform dependent, and your best bet is to read the source code for the actual node numbers that cygwin supports rather than relying on something that worked for Linux. -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com+1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Of course this also selects experimental versions of a few other packages, e.g. emacs, but if you don't want to help testing those, you can downgrade them on the Pending page.

Updated: cygwin-1.7.6-1
Hi Cygwin friends and users, I just released 1.7.6-1. This release fixes a bunch of bugs, and introduces a few new features. It also contains a change which will affect calling native Win32 API functions from Cygwin applications. I would like to urge you to have another look into the documentation at http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/cygwin-ug-net.html. It contains a couple of improvements and the description for new features and changes from old behaviour. What's new since Cygwin 1.7.5: == - Add new mount options dos and ihash to allow overriding Cygwin default behaviour on broken filesystems not recognized by Cygwin. See http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table and http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mount - Add new mount option bind to allow remounting parts of the POSIX file hirarchy somewhere else. See http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table and http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mount - Ttys and ptys are handled as securable objects using file-like permissions and owner/group information. chmod and chown now work on ttys/ptys. A new mechanism is used to propagate pty handles safely to other processes, which does not require to use Cygserver. - Pass on coresize settings made with setrlimit(2). This allows shells to disable creating stackdump files in child processes via `ulimit -c 0' in bash or `limit coredumpsize 0' in tcsh. - Locale categories contain all localization strings additionally as wide-char strings. locale(1) prints these values just as on Linux. nl_langinfo(3) allows to fetch them. See file:///usr/include/langinfo.h - New interfaces mkostemp(3) and mkostemps(3). See file:///usr/include/stdlib.h - New virtual file /proc/filesystems. - clock_gettime(3) and clock_getres(3) accept CLOCK_MONOTONIC. - Several small additions to header files. What changed since Cygwin 1.7.5: - Cygwin handles the current working directory entirely on its own. The Win32 current working directory is set to an invalid path to be out of the way. This affects calls to the Win32 file API (CreateFile, etc.). See http://cygwin.com/htdocs/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#pathnames-win32-api - Change the way a process is made process group leader in case we're started from a non-Cygwin process. This isn't foolproof and may need more work. - Workaround a BLODA problem in rename(2) which otherwise results in annoying errors. - Add more workarounds for broken filesystems which either don't grok reopening a file by handle (NWFS) or which are not capable of handling filenames with leading spaces or trailing dots or spaces (NWFS, Netapp). - Don't try to evaluate reparse points (junctions) on remote filesystems as symlinks. - Improve performance of stat and a few other functions. ls(1) should be up to 30% faster on some drives. - Speed up signal delivery slightly. - Improve error output in strace. - cygwin_conv_path now drops the \\?\ prefix from short paths it returns with CCP_POSIX_TO_WIN_W. Bugfixes since Cygwin 1.7.5: - Fix problem where pseudo-relocs were getting applied twice, resulting in a crash. - Fix a crash when accessing /proc/registry* - Avoid that connect on a not yet established AF_LOCAL/AF_UNIX socket misinterprets the socket file as non-socket. - Fix stdin/out/err handle permissions when called from a non-Cygwin process. - Fix codeset problem in internal handling of process name. - Fix abbreviated month names for japanese and korean locale. - Fix calls to gettimeofday after call to settimeofday. - Fix REG_MULTI_SZ handling in /proc/registry* - Honor cygwin username even if it only differs by case from Windows username. - Fix potential memory leak when accessing // or //server directories. - Fix using a wrong handle when checking for files inaccessible to current user. - Fix erroneous handling of devices in path checking. - Fix potential crash in exec(2) if parent uses file locking. - Return useful error code when writing beyond free space on disk. - Fix longstanding bug where pipe() would inappropriately reuse open fd's. - Fix several signal races which caused SEGVs. - Fix long-standing bug when trying to open an already opened pipe via /proc/$PID/fd/... - Fix a potential crash when calling mount -a. - Fix bug in math functions lround(), llround(), lrint(), llrint().
