wow; thanks for quick response. I tried running your first command but got
the message:
awk: fatal: cannot open file ' /etc/setup/installed.db' for reading (No
such file or directory) >
The file seems to be there and I checked my input so I do not know what
when wrong. Any suggestions?
File name shown is ' /etc/setup/installed.db' - includes a leading space -
do not use any quotes or add spaces in file names - or just paste the
second line at the end of the first line, with an (unquoted) space between
if required.
...and remove any \ continuation escape if you paste the lines together -
that may well have been your issue!
Another question, if I may: does your procedure install both Fortran and
Dislin which are installed on the T1600? I do not see them in
cygwin-packages-picked.txt.
The Cygwin Fortran package is gcc-fortran (gfortran/f95 symlink): you should
see this unless you have been using a proprietary closed source compiler.
It looks like Dislin is a proprietary closed source plotting package which you
will have to find, acquire, install, and configure separately, or migrate
settings from your old system.
Another concern that just occurred to me is the installation of a BASIC
Cygwin installation. Does that mean that the files that I have transferred
from the old system and tuning that I have already done will have to be
redone? Can I do your cygstart step on my current configuration?
Cygwin customizations should normally be in your Cygwin /home/ directory under
~/.directories.../ and in ~/.dotrc... files.
Copying those over to the equivalent directory, reviewing, and modifying their
settings appropriately if required should keep your new system setup consistent
with your old system.
If you have made any system wide common customizations under /etc/, you can
check changes you may have made to those by running the command below on your
old system:
$ diff -qr /etc/{defaults/etc/,} | tee ~/etc.log | less
which also saves the results summary, showing settings to be copied or compared
in the file ~/etc.log in your home directory ~/:
* lines in ~/etc.log saying
"Only in /etc/...: file..."
indicate files that should be copied over from /etc/... on your old system to
/etc/... on your new system;
* lines in ~/etc.log saying
"Files /etc/defaults/etc/file... and /etc/file... differ"
should be compared individually using commands like e.g.:
$ diff /etc/{defaults/etc/,}file... | tee ~/filediff | less
and a decision made whether to:

It looks like Dislin is a proprietary closed source plotting package which you

There is a gcc4-fortran listed; so is that OK? And the old 32 bit vs new 64 bit
is not a problem?
That will need updated to gcc-fortran - it may have been using an ancient
package convention - you may have to check and update some package names if
never upgraded for many years.
Cygwin is a rolling release so if you upgrade using setup at least every year or
so, when thinsg are quiet, it will avoid you missing out when obsolete packages
are replaced.
DISLIN is a free scientific plotting package(www.dislin.de). They have a
download for 64 bit Cygwin so I hope that will work. Lou
It is not free/libre/open source, and only provides a proprietary no cost
licence for non-commercial binary download and use, so if you use it in any job,
you must pay to license use of it for a period of time, or choose a truly free
alternative.
The last update on that proprietary package was 18 months ago, so it may no
longer be actively developed or supported: you should check its mailing list for
recent activity; its status does not affect its licence.

anything more under Cygwin on your new system.
wow; thanks for quick response. I tried running your first command
but got
the message:
awk: fatal: cannot open file ' /etc/setup/installed.db' for reading
(No such file or directory) >
The file seems to be there and I checked my input so I do not know
what when wrong. Any suggestions?
File name shown is ' /etc/setup/installed.db' - includes a leading
space - do not use any quotes or add spaces in file names - or just
paste the second line at the end of the first line, with an
(unquoted) space between if required.
...and remove any \ continuation escape if you paste the lines
together - that may well have been your issue!

Re: Fortran Installation
YES, that continuation escape was it. On to the next step. BTW does the
fact that the old Cygwin is 32 bit, and the new Cygwin, that I have
already installed, is 64 complicate things?

Your original installation is anyway too old for that to work as intended, so please just do a fresh install and select gcc-fortran and any other utilities you might want to use.
