"realpath" behavior
Looking for someone to confirm if this is expected behavior, or a bug:
With standard mount points:
c:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
c:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
* Calling realpath() to resolve "/bin" results in "/usr/bin".
* Likewise, calling realpath() to resolve "/lib" results in "/usr/lib".
If anything, I'd expect the opposite behavior - ie, realpath("/usr/bin")
to return "/bin", etc.

A way may be to try my version with the -D flag. This give some additional hint about the internals of the dll. Ralf
Should the gcc package contain a cc symlink?
Chris, Would you be willing to add the following symlink to the gcc package? $ ln -s gcc.exe /usr/bin/cc It would solve the following problem: http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=681504&group_id=5470&atid=305470 and make the Cygwin gcc package more consistent with the Red Hat Linux one (at least in this regard).

SYSTEM() problem
Title: SYSTEM() problem
Hi,
I am trying to use the system() calll, for example system("echo hello"); but it does not work, even though system(NULL); returns non-zero.
It does work in the cygwin environment, but I need it to work on a dos command line with cygwin DLL in the path.
thanks in advance,
Houman

If I'm unsuccessful, then I will ask Ralf for help. All, The above has raised two issues: 1. How should rebase deal with the above. Should it temporarily chmod to writable, rebase, and reset to the original permissions? Or, should it just fail on read-only files? 2. Should rebase quit on the first failure or just skip problematic files? Note that my original version was greedy. I changed it to stop on the first failure when I switched to using Ralf's imagehelper library. There are pros and cons to both policies. I'm not sure which one is best.

Re: Apache Module Packaging Issue
Hi Volker, what about your invitation for a BBQ? Maybe upcoming summer? :)) "Dr. Volker Zell" wrote: > > And please fix also the line > > AddModule mod_ntsec_auth.c > > which gets added to httpd.conf from mod_auth_ntsec Hmm, that thingy is not my fault. It's more the way apxs includes the module identifier names. The thing is that within the source the module identifier is named the other way arround, then the filename is. I may rename the module identifier in that case to avoid it. mod_auth_mysql has the same problem :(( PS: I hadn't the chance to run the latest Cygwin DLLs on my laptop. Can someone confirm that the socket connection hanging problems have now been fixed with it?

Anomaly during update by Setup.exe (re-post with compressed attachment)
Hello all, During the daily update this morning, I saw a slight anomaly while running Setup. I've attached the setup log. This is what I got: after download, during un-installation (with no Cygwin applications running) I got a message box the cygwin1.dll was missing in the PATH - which is a bit normal as it has just been un-installed to be updated. It was uninstalling xerces when it complained. This kinda figures, because there is a "preremove" shell script, which is run with sh, which needs the cygwin1 DLL (which was already removed). The setup log shows this nicely: 2003/02/10 10:02:18 Starting cygwin install, version 2.249.2.5 2003/02/10 10:02:18 Current Directory: D:\Cygwin downloads 2003/02/10 10:02:20 source: network install 2003/02/10 10:02:20 root: D:\cygwin binary system 2003/02/10 10:02:21 Selected local directory: D:\Cygwin downloads 2003/02/10 10:02:22 net: Direct [snip] 2003/02/10 10:03:38 Uninstalling cygwin [snip] 2003/02/10 10:03:42 Uninstalling xerces-c-devel 2003/02/10 10:03:42 running: D:\cygwin\bin\sh.exe -c /etc/preremove/xerces-c-devel.sh [snip] Preremove scripts also exist for cygwin-doc and gcc-mingw. This means that if Cygwin and one of these packages are simultaniously updated, the (IMHO anomalous) message box complaining about an absent cygwin1.dll will appear. Some dependency tracking of the updated packages may be in order if this is to be fixed (not uninstalling a package unless all packages to be uninstalled that depend in it have effectively been uninstalled, in stead of alphabetical order). I am not familiar with the Setup code, so I can send a patch for this problem, at least for the time being.. just thought you might like to know anyway :) Greetz! rlc NB: I cross-posted this to both cygwin@... and cygwin-apps@... because (as I understand it) this is on-topic on both lists. Forgive me if that was a mistake... NNB: I had to re-post this to at least [EMAIL PROTECTED] because the attachment was apparently too large. If this means that some got the message twice on cygwin-apps, I apologize (but I haven't seen it arrive there either, so I don't think it'll be the case) setup.log.full.gz Description: Compressed setup log
