It does have this at build time: #if OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER >= 0x00904000L #define READ_X509_KEY(fp, key) PEM_read_X509(fp, key, NULL, NULL) #else #define READ_X509_KEY(fp, key) PEM_read_X509(fp, key, NULL) #endif which AFAICT is OK (right?).

Re: RFC: updated package wget-1.7.1-1
It looks pretty good to me -- I rebuilt it from source right now and it seems okay. The *only* quibble I have is that the binary package contains this file: /etc/wgetrc Since it is just a copy of /usr/doc/wget-1.7.1/sample.wgetrc, you should probably just add some logic to your postinstall shell script: if [ ! -f /etc/wgetrc ]; then cp /usr/doc/wget-1.7.1/sample.wgetrc /etc/wgetrc fi Of course, future versions must take care to change the /usr/doc/wget-1.7.1/ path in that script... --Chuck Hack Kampbjørn wrote: > I've updated the wget package to version 1.7.1.

On Tuesday 15 Jan 02, Ken Stevens writes: > What are the chances of getting emacs or xemacs as part of the setup? GNU Emacs is not ported to Cygwin. Xemacs may be a candidate. Andy Piper essentially forked an early setup.exe so he could provide a pre-compiled Cygwin Xemacs package. (I think his setup.exe can also be used to install the native win32 version of Xemacs.) That was because Cygwin setup could not accomodate an Xemacs package at the time. I'm sure it could now, but you'd want to talk to Andy. Why, are you volunteering to maintain it?

I've checked in a slightly different patch which checks for the filename itself as well as for the same filename with trailing .lnk. This removes all sorts of symlinks, hopefully. Another patch to io_stream::gets() always eliminates end-of-line, LF as well as CRLF. This was necessary since the filenames had trailing LF's so the packagemeta::uninstall() function didn't uninstall anything.

RE: last package
Cool. I'm not too sure which category is appropriate. I thought possibly either Base or Utils. sdesc: "last" ldesc: "This utility searches through historical information kept in /var/log/wtmp to determine who logged in, where they came from, when they logged in, and how long they stayed." category: Base requires: cygwin > -Original Message- > From: Robert Collins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 9:09 AM > To: Mark Bradshaw; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: last package > > > - Original Message - > From: "Mark Bradshaw" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, January 16, 2002 1:08 AM > Subject: RE: last package > > > > Great.

Great. Now I have a question. Last is a part of the sysvinit package. What's the policy on doing a package on only a portion of someone else's package?

Any interest in a ported version of "last" for cygwin? I find it useful when some sort of remote shell program is run on cygwin (i.e. openssh). Mark

What I did: - Added a http service under Guest account to /etc/inetd.conf: http stream tcp nowait Guest /usr/sbin/httpd httpd - To nurse my paranoia I changed the /etc/passwd line for Guest so that it's in group "Guests" instead of "None": Guest::501:546:,S-1-5-21-XXX-YYY-ZZZ-501:/home/Guest:/bin/true - Changed the startup type in /etc/apache/httpd.conf: ServerType inetd - Started inetd. - Started a browser on my Linux box and tried to get a page from the Cygwin box. - Was happy. Now, I'm missing an option to httpd which allows the same as the -D option in sshd: -D When this option is specified sshd will not detach and does not become a daemon. This allows easy monitoring of sshd. This is similar to the -X option in httpd but that option let httpd running in single process mode. That's more like the -d option in sshd which is only useful for debugging purposes, either. If you could patch httpd to get a new option which differs from the usual run mode only by not forking and detaching the master process, we could start it using cygrunsrv as well. That shouldn't be too hard. The -D option in sshd is really just skipping a function call `daemon()'. Otherwise we could upload apache as is but with a description how to start under inetd in the /usr/doc/Cygwin/apache* README. I'd ask you to implement the above option, though.

RE: cygpath patch
Hi Corinna, there's also a minor open patch at cygwin-patches for cygpath.cc from me providing consistency for Jonathan's last one. See http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-patches/2002-q1/msg00049.html Joshua, please also provide a patch for utils.sgml describing the new features - at least if your enhancement is accepted :) Regards, Jorg

I applied it to my local sandbox but I was somewhat surprised about the behaviour since cygpath -D -A has another result as cygpath -A -D which is not what a user expects. The options should be scanned and after the scanning they should be evaluated (right after the switch statement). Would you mind to change your patch accordingly?

I told you about that problem using cygrunsrv some months ago. Unfortunatly I still have no solution. But I haven't tried that since a while. Can you peak at it?!

Sorry 'bout that. It should be: export MANPATH="${MANPATH}:/usr/ssl/man" That is, just add an equal sign between variable name and the value. Your change isn't correct since the leading colon gets lost. It's important, though. If it's missing, man wouldn't search the default MANPATH as given in /usr/lib/man.conf anymore. Thanks for the hint. I'm too used to tcsh, probably. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Developermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Red Hat, Inc.
