cannot install from local disk with latest setup.exe-2.249.2.2
Hi I usually install packages in two steps. First I download them and then I install from local disk. The latter does not work for me with setup.exe-2.249.2.2. setup just keeps my disk spinning when it comes to the Installing... screen. I cannot even press the Cancel button, it's not reacting anymore. Nothing is written to the logfiles. I have to use the taskvier to kill setup. My setup is NT4-SP5 The latest working setup in my scenario was setup.exe-2.218.2.9 Ciao Volker

I just re-read this. Can you run it under a debugger? Even though there aren't symbols, you'll get debugging output. Thanks, Rob

It would be helpful to add some pointers to setup's application page. However, when I said 'build', I really meant cross-build. Anyway, I'm almost there now. I've no clue whether I'm using incorrect header files, incorrect libraries, or just need an extra library. This is on a cygwin-1.3.10 based cross-install.

No. 2.218.2.9 understood the MD5 tags, it didn't use them at all. Rob
mutt doesn't find it's manual.txt
Hi When inside mutt and pressing the manual should appear. Instead I get /usr/doc/mutt/manual.txt: No such file or directory Press any key to continue... This is because the manual is installed in: /usr/doc/mutt-1.2.5i/manual.txt Maybe this can be changed iin the next release. Ciao Volker

You could also just drop this in a dir somewhere, run setup and tell it that dir is your local package dir. It should pick it up and allow an install automagically. Rob

Ben, Yes, there is. Harold Hunt is working on getting those together. He's been under a time crunch lately, so unfortunately their completion has been delayed. Hopefully they'll be out soon :-).

I have some patchs to Cinstall, is their any prefered way that > Cinstall people like diffs ? Chris is the person to address the first part. However it's not interpreted as a timestamp by setup (at the moment), just an incrementing integer. $ date +"%s" Does the right thing for me though. As for diffs - please send them in as per the contributing link on the main cygwin home page. I'll add a section on this to http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html at some point, but chances are that it will just refer to the main cygwin contributing page. Cheers, Rob
