O.k. I've found the problem. This works with tar 1.13.25 tar cvjf test.tbz2 --exclude= In 1.15.1 it mucks up parsing of --exclude= and somehow later tries to stat "--exclude=" as being the complete filename. But actually when it reports the "Cannot stat: No such file or directory" message the filename is correct. Moving --exclude= to this... tar --exclude= -cvjf test.tbz2 makes it work.

tar 1.15.1 broken
This is probably just for Eric Blake, but I thought I'd let others know. I'm currently packaging a new xorg release for cygwin. I only ever build directly on my WinXP box for this too. Now, having upgraded everything to the latest releases things started to go wrong with the packaging scripts. tar started to bleat with "Cannot stat: No such file or directory" for lots of different things. I've reverted to tar 1.13.25 and everything is fine. One other thing to note is that I'm building on a samba connected drive if that matters to tar.

undefined reference to __pei386_runtime_relocator
I'm using the new --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc parameter to ld and finding that nothing links and ld blurts out ertr03.o(.rdata+0x0): undefined reference to `__pei386_runtime_relocator' Is there something extra I need to add to ld, or is this missing from the current libraries ? Or does this option not work yet ? Thanks.

That's unfortunate, because we won't be able to make shared libXt, libXmu and libXaw for Cygwin/XFree86 until we do get them. (Unless some serious hacking around the arrays goes on, not something I relish doing). Guess we'll have to wait. sigh.

This isn't the way it used to work, and shouldn't in my opinion. setup.exe should know what it's downloaded and not installed.

Bug in setup.exe 2.194.2.24
Hi, I'm wondering if I've found a bug in setup.exe. I'm using 2.194.2.24 and when I go through "Download from Internet" and download the "new" components. It downloads them fine. Next, I re-run setup.exe and I go through "Download from Internet" again, (but this was by accident) and it says that the same files are ready to be downloaded and proceeds to re-download them all again. If I "Install from Local Directory" first it clears the problem.
