Re: latest iconv hangs

That message tells you exactly what it means. You need to reboot because it is attempting to replace in-use DLLs, which Windows isn't good at. Long story short, it does it by telling Windows "Next time you start, please copy this file over that file before loading." Just restarting bash isn't e

Problems with terminal -tn setting TERM variable

I'm sorry if there's an easy solution that I haven't found yet, but I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same problem with Cygwin/X's xterm as I am. xterm -tn doesn't seem to properly set up the TERM variable. For example: xterm -tn xterm-16color -e bash -c 'echo TERM=$TERM; read x'

latest iconv hangs

I have used iconv for several years. I just updated my cygwin package last night, and now iconv hangs. That is, all the following commands hang: iconv -l iconv --list echo foo | iconv -f ISO-8859-1 - UTF-8 And it's a "hard hang", too: ^C won't stop it. I don't have any way to get a version n

Problem building ImageMagick 6.3.0

I wanted to build the latest ImageMagick but the build fails for me. I attach the cygport script and patch that I use (shamelessly adapted from Yaakov's cygports version). It looks like libtool is not finding libstdc++.a (logsnippet below) Any ideas? Volker The build fails with: if
