ITP: autobuild
Autobuild is a package that process output from building software, primarily focused on packages using Autoconf and Automake, and then generate a HTML summary file, containing links to each build log. The output include project name, version, build host types (cross compile aware), compiler host name, date of build, and indication of success or failure. The output is indexed in many ways to simplify browsing. autobuild is a build-time requirement of the upcoming libtool-2.4 release (but not of packages that merely USE libtool, even if you autoreconf them). I'm not sure whether it is included in any linux distributions or not; I get too many hits when searching for 'autobuild'...so, I probably need some votes. However, given that it is a new build requirement of libtool, I imagine that the distros will be forced to add it eventually. http://cygwin.cwilson.fastmail.fm/ITP/autobuild-5.3-1.tar.bz2 http://cygwin.cwilson.fastmail.fm/ITP/autobuild-5.3-1-src.tar.bz2 sdesc: Generate summary information from build logs ldesc: Autobuild is a package that processes output from building software, primarily focused on packages using Autoconf and Automake, and then generates a HTML summary file, containing links to each build log.

Cygwin and symlink

Now AR complains and I can't read it. Is this to be expected? BTW, I remember also that the icon of 'slnk_foo.pdf' had the symbol of a link (like an 'arrow'), now it is as other PDF files icon.

So awk gsub works for me again - thank you!
Just out of curiosity, why would setting LANG to en_US break
case-sensitivity in gsub?
I don't know either. I just asked the upstream maintainer. At least it
isn't a Cygwin problem, since it also behaves the same on Linux.
I got reply from the upstream maintainer. Case-sensitivity in gsub is
not broken, rather it's really a language dependent difference.
If LANG is en_US or en_US.utf8, then the regular expression [a-z]
does *not* correspond anymore to the ASCII codes. Rather it corresponds
to something like [aAbBcCdD...zZ], independent of the actual character
encoding ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8.
Thank you - I appreciate the follow-up.
Was the reply from the upstream maintainer answered on a mailing list?
( if so, which one?) I'd like to understand the problem they're
solving.. I get the idea of [[:lower:]] working regardless of
collating order of the current char set, but how [a-z] gets
translated to something like [aAbBcCdD...zZ] boggles my mind. It
seems like they had to have gone out of their way to translate [a-z]
into a case-insensitive RE.
But regardless, it still seems broken to me. From the gawk man page:
The various command line options control how gawk interprets
characters in regular expressions.
--traditional
Traditional Unix awk regular expressions are matched. The GNU
operators are not special, interval expressions are not available, and
neither are the POSIX character classes ([[:alnum:]] and so on).
The way I read it, I can change the line in my .bashrc from
export AWK=/usr/bin/gawk.exe
to
export AWK=/usr/bin/gawk.exe --traditional
and not have to change any scripts that use $AWK. If --traditional
meant one no longer was able to do a case-sensitive RE ([a-z] gets
translated into [aAbB...zZ] and [[:lower:]] isn't interpreted as a
lower case character RE) I'd expect that to be high-lighted in the man
page. But like I said in my initial msg, --traditional doesn't fix
the problem:
$ cat test.awk
awk --traditional '
BEGIN {
s=Serial0
gsub([a-z],,s)
printf(s= ::%s:: should = ::S0::\n, s)

} '
$ export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
$ sh test.awk
s= ::0:: should = ::S0::
What you really want is this:
s/really want/have to do/
BEGIN {
s=Serial0
gsub([[:lower:]],,s)
printf(s= ::%s:: should = ::S0::\n, s)
exit
}
The [[:lower:]] expression always catches all valid lowercase letters,
independent of the langauge, territory, and charset used.
At least for the short term, my work-around is not setting LANG.

Problems with gitk after cygwin update
Hello, I just updated my Cygwin installation with the newest packages, especially cygwin base from 1.7.5 to 1.7.7 and git from 1.7.1 to 1.7.2.3. I'm now having problems when I launch gitk in the background from a xterm, i.e. gitk . First of all, if I press any key after I switch back to the xterm, it just closes.

Hello Lee,
you hit a well know problem with different character sets.
Normally it is not recognized, because the standard character set from
UNIX, LINUX And WINDOWS systems
have the characters abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz in a sequence. But this
is not the case for all character sets.
E.g. *EBCDIC* is one example for such a character set.
The different character set are a great problem for porting programs
from one system to another.
The documentation for gawk in the man page is not complete. Many GNU
programs have the full/better documentation in the info pages.
The documentation for your problem is accessible by the following command:
info gawk character list
It is the first paragraph in the info page.
2.4 Using Character Lists
=
Within a character list, a range expression consists of two
characters separated by a hyphen. It matches any single character that
sorts between the two characters, using the locale's collating sequence
and character set. For example, in the default C locale, `[a-dx-z]' is
equivalent to `[abcdxyz]'. Many locales sort characters in dictionary
order, and in these locales, `[a-dx-z]' is typically not equivalent to
`[abcdxyz]'; instead it might be equivalent to `[aBbCcDdxXyYz]', for
example. To obtain the traditional interpretation of bracket
expressions, you can use the C locale by setting the `LC_ALL'
environment variable to the value `C'.
Regards
Dirk

I'll fix it tomorrow. This turned out to be more difficult to diagnose than I thought so it is not yet fixed. It should be fixed now. Please try the latest snapshot. cygserver starts but other services (messagebus, syslog-ng) do not with 20100919 snapshot. Ok, I'm back in WJFFM territory then. I can start sshd, cygserver, messagebus, and syslog-ng without problem. What does the eventlog say? cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Re: fvwm ignores clickToFocus for function keys
On Sun, 19 Sep 2010 13:03:19 -0700 (PDT) Charles Smith cts.priv...@yahoo.com wrote: When typing in an in-focus xterm, but the mouse cursor is elsewhere, if I hit a function key, the programmed action does not occur. Instead, something else occurs, which I cannot identify (involving insertion of characters and/or other actions). When the mouse is positioned directly inside the window, the programmed action occurs normally. This is different than the operation of fvwm under linux. In that case, an in-focus xterm takes function key input as well as other key input, regardless where the mouse cursor is. a) Are you running fvwm under a rootless X11? b) are your configs the same? Thus, if I have programmed the xterm F12 key to send: 21 | less nl it is only received by bash if the mouse is positioned inside the window. This is a problem if I entered a command (other key input obeys the clickToFocus directive) and then hit F12, and some unidentifiable garbage gets inserted. Sounds like something is trashing a buffer... however I'm not entirely sure. I can't verify that this is a cygwin problem, but hours of googling haven't revealed any mention of the problem at all, an any platform. See the 2 questions above... Interestingly, I just noticed that the arrow keys seem to work normally, regardless of the position of the mouse. It's only the function keys that behave poorly. Sounds oddly configuration related... then again, i don't use fvwm on windows. --~-- Morgan Gangwere signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Updated: icu-4.5.1-1
The icu library, the IBM Internationalization Components for Unicode was updated to 4.5.1-1. It is not used yet in any package, the next parrot will use it and hiphop (the php compiler) will need it. Canonical homepage: http://ibm.com/software/globalization/icu/ Canonical download: ftp://www-126.ibm.com/pub/icu/ Packaging Details: - version 4.5.1-1 - most patches already applied upstream. at least 4.2 needed for hiphop (ports) To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select Editors or Text and then click on the appropriate fields until the above announced version numbers appear if they are not displayed already. If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after 24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or you can try to find another mirror. Please send questions or comments to the Cygwin mailing list at: cygwin at cygwin.com If you want to subscribe go to: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/ I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general. If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. -- Reini Urban
