[ANNOUNCEMENT] e2fsprogs 1.44.5-1

2019-01-19 Thread Yaakov Selkowitz
The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* e2fsprogs-1.44.5-1
* libcom_err2-1.44.5-1
* libcom_err-devel-1.44.5-1
* libe2p2-1.44.5-1

* libext2fs2-1.44.5-1
* libext2fs-devel-1.44.5-1
* libss2-1.44.5-1
* libss-devel-1.44.5-1
* uuidd-1.44.5-1

This package contains all of the standard utilities for creating, 
fixing, configuring, and debugging ext2/3/4 filesystems.

This is an update to the latest upstream release.  The uuidd(8) binary 
is provided by a new subpackage from these sources, as the util-linux
version now requires signalfd(2) support.  Such support is expected in 
the next version of Cygwin, at which point util-linux will provide this 
binary again.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: e2fsprogs, e2fsimage, util-linux

2010-06-25 Thread Yaakov (Cygwin/X)
The following packages have been updated for the Cygwin distribution:

*** e2fsimage-0.2.2-1
*** e2fsprogs-1.41.12-1
*** libblkid1/libblkid-devel-2.17.2-1
*** libcom_err2/libcom_err-devel-1.41.12-1
*** libe2p2/libe2p-devel-1.41.12-1

*** libss2/libss-devel-1.41.12-1
*** libuuid1/libuuid-devel-2.17.2-1
*** util-linux-2.17.2-1

util-linux provides an assortment of utilities for *NIX systems.

e2fsprogs and e2fsimage provide utilities for working with ext2/3/4
filesystems.

The libraries provided by e2fsprogs, which were previously only static,
are now also available as shared libraries.  libblkid and libuuid are
now provided by the util-linux sources but are compatible with those
previously shipped by e2fsprogs.

Note that installing libuuid-devel will make it a little more difficult
to link against w32api's UUID.DLL import lib.  Please note that these
are completely unrelated libraries, and any open-source *NIX software
looking for -luuid is looking for this libuuid-devel.

2010-06-24 Thread Yaakov (Cygwin/X)
Continuing my mission to remove the overlaps between distro and Ports,
I'll take e2fsprogs.  This release features, with some hacking, shared
libraries.  It depends on a simultaneous (and long-overdue) update to
util-linux, as libuuid and libblkid which were previously provided by
e2fsprogs are now provided by util-linux.

Hello Sam,

 A new build of e2fsprogs that installs libuuid.a into
 /usr/lib/e2fsprogs (instead of into /usr/lib), which
 should fix the problem reported in:

Me as reviewer and gcc maintainer should be more restrictive the next

yeah, it was actually only a reviewing problem.
BTW:
why not putting such static incompatible libs into /usr/lib/linux to 
avoid further nameclash problems and avoid lib fragmentation?

we only have /lib/mingw/*.a and /lib/w32api/*.a files so far.
and the new /lib/efsprogs/*.a now, besides some other application 
specific .dll's (apache, zsh, postgresql, ...)

of course it's not only for linux, but what other name then?

To the OP: your problem may potentially be that you're missing the
/usr/lib mount.  However, since you didn't follow the Cygwin problem
reporting guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html, and didn't
attach the output of cygcheck -svr to your report, the above is just a
WAG.

 my /usr/lib mount works okay,
 my latest -mno-cygwin linking after upgrading gcc fail also,
(I do that automatically with a cronjob and didn't have a look,
 since only the xvidcore/dshow build failed)
 but I think it's just missing the libuuid. at least for me.

 I have the -luuid together with the other w32api libs,
-lwinmm -lole32 -loleaut32 -lcomctl32
 just for the libuuid symbols get I more undefined references to 
 `_GUID_NULL' _IID_IUnknown, _IID_IPropertyPagem, _IID_IPersist, ...

 And what do I find?
 there's a new /usr/lib/libuuid.a which takes precedence over 
 /usr/lib/w32api/libuuid.a
 therefore my uuid symbols don't get found.

 $ cygcheck -f /usr/lib/libuuid.a
 e2fsprogs-1.35-1

 aha, the culprit!
 please de-install all e2fsprogs, then it will work.

 efsprog maintainer: please move this to your subdir 
 /usr/lib/efsprog/libuuid.a

Thats it, thank you for the analysis, I just thought all the time
after the thread, why are all libraries found, but uuid isn't?
I remember now that I also have e2fsprogs installed and libwin32
failis for me with exactly the same error.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New package: e2fsprogs-1.35

2004-08-18 Thread Robb, Sam
The package 'e2fsprogs' is now available in the Cygwin distribution.

The Ext2 Filesystem Utilities (e2fsprogs) contain all of the standard
utilities for creating, fixing, configuring, and debugging ext2
filesystems (e2fsck, mke2fs, debugfs, dumpe2fs, tune2fs, etc.)

The e2fsprogs home page is http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/

   *** INSTALLATION ***

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.  Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.  e2fsprogs
is located in the Devel category.  Click on this category to install
e2fsprogsif it is not already installed.  If e2fsprogs is already
installed, it will be updated automatically.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin

Changes:
  - Entry point GetFileSizeEx not found in KERNEL32.DLL : Fixed
I worked around the use of GetFileSizeEx() in the code, and posted
a patch to the mingw and e2fsprogs folks.  I don't have an 9x/NT
machine handy, though, so I don't have a way to verify this fix.
  - lnconf.sh not marked as executable: Fixed
  - Man pages belong under /usr/share/man: Fixed

ToDo:
  - Examine libuuid.a build problem raised by Gerrit
I will take a look at this now that the other issues have been dealt
with.

 Should I upgrade?

Yes, to Win2K ;-)

GetFileSizeEx is not available in 9x and in NT = 4.

The above packages shouldn't use it (Cygwin doesn't).  The problem is
perhaps that GetFileSizeEx is not guarded by an `#if (_WIN32_WINNT = 0x0500)'
in w32api/include/winbase.h.

[ITP] e2fsprogs, e2fsimage

2004-08-09 Thread Robb, Sam
Hello,

  I am interested in packaging and maintaining e2fsprogs for
Cygwin.  Version 1.35 pretty much builds OOTB.  My primary
interest in e2fsprogs is not the utilities themselves, but
the ext2 libraries that are built as part of the package.

  These ext2 libraries are a pre-requisite for another package
that I would like to contribute, e2fsimage.  With the ext2 libs
from e2fsprogs-1.35 built and installed, e2fsimage also pretty
much builds OOTB, and is able to create a basic ext2 filesystem
image based off of a Cygwin directory.

  I've placed both these packages in the Devel category,
because they are primarily intended for use by folks using
Cygwin as a host platform for cross-development.

  If folks would prefer it, I could see about packaging and
installing e2fsprgs as two seperate components - e2fslibs, and
e2fsprogs, for example.  e2fslibs could be packaged now,
e2fsprogs in the future (when I actually have a chance to test
against a real ext2 partition on a Windows box).

  If folks would prefer it, I could see about packaging and
installing e2fsprgs as two seperate components - e2fslibs, and
e2fsprogs, for example.  e2fslibs could be packaged now,
e2fsprogs in the future (when I actually have a chance to test
against a real ext2 partition on a Windows box).

+1 for me.  I don't see any reason to split the package, though.

Hello,
 I am interested in packaging and maintaining e2fsprogs for
Cygwin.  Version 1.35 pretty much builds OOTB.  My primary
interest in e2fsprogs is not the utilities themselves, but
the ext2 libraries that are built as part of the package.
 These ext2 libraries are a pre-requisite for another package
that I would like to contribute, e2fsimage.  With the ext2 libs
from e2fsprogs-1.35 built and installed, e2fsimage also pretty
much builds OOTB, and is able to create a basic ext2 filesystem
image based off of a Cygwin directory.
 I've placed both these packages in the Devel category,
because they are primarily intended for use by folks using
Cygwin as a host platform for cross-development.

ldesc: e2fsimage enables the user to create and populate an ext2 filesystem image

+1, and no need to split the package, IMO.
