My msys installation is broken some month ago, after my Windows XP update itself automatically. And I got a "Couldn't reserve space for cygwin's heap" error when trying to use msys program such as `cp', I have to replace the `msys-1.0.dll' with 'new-msys-1.0.dll' according to: http://lists-archives.org/mingw-msys/01244-couldn-t-reserve-space-for-cygwin-s-heap-win32-error-6.html ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug

I don't have cygwin installed. I think `cp' of msys is used for copying files while `make install'. ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
Re: lots of "source file is newer" messages
I don't have cygwin installed. I think `cp' of msys is used for copying files while `make install'. FWIW, `make install' recently failed with cp.exe (5.3.0) from GnuWin32 on my system. It tells me things like: ... skipping file `c:/foo', as it was replaced while being copied This never failed with UnxUtils / Cygwin ports of cp. ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug

Please post a full transcript of what happens when you type "make install". It's very hard to look into problems given such partial information. ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
Re: lots of "source file is newer" messages
Please post a full transcript of what happens when you type "make install". It's very hard to look into problems given such partial information. It's not a problem with `make install'. It's a problem of that very instance of cp. As far as I recall it failed already during configure, hence I maybe didn't even get to make. But I'm quite reluctant to go through that again. Suffice it to say that cp.exe version 5.3.0 from GnuWin32 fails to copy a file on my system. ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug

FWIW, I'm using the same version of cp.exe, and I don't see any such problem, neither during configure, nor during "make install". Are you using some port of a Unix shell, and if so, what port is that? Also, what port of Make are you using, and where did you get the binary? ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
Re: lots of "source file is newer" messages
FWIW, I'm using the same version of cp.exe, and I don't see any such problem, neither during configure, nor during "make install". I didn't before and do not since I eliminated that version of cp. As I said before, it's not related to making Emacs. cp.exe from GnuWin32 simply refuses to copy a file on my system. And I conjecture that `make install' may have failed in a strange way, on my system, by using my usual version of cp.exe during configure and the broken one during making. But I don't recall precisely what happened. I simply know that some components of GnuWin32 don't work on my system. > Are you using some port of a Unix shell, and if so, what port is that? Not in this context. But with zsh.exe (zsh-4.2.4.exe) from Cygwin cp behaves in exactly the same way. > Also, what port of Make are you using, and where did you get the > binary? Make 3.80 from MinGW. I don't recall where I got the binaries from. ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
