1.5.24-2 continues Re: 1.5.20: Occasional crash at address 0x6100365f (cygthread::stub() in cygthread.cc)

Super short version: the problem explored in http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-07/subjects.html#00239 (fractured replies) continues in 1.5.24. Details: cygcheck output is below. I could reliably get 1 to 4 popups occurring during a long sequence of several short sh invocations such as make

I'll need more details if you expect me to help resolve that crash. A stackdump is nearly useless without compiled symbols to go along it - what was your exact command line? What version of find? It wasn't meant to be a bug report for find(1), just a note of why I'd stopped investigating it.

Try replacing spaces ' ' with dots '.' in the paths specified with --prunepaths. In a regexp a dot matches any character. I had tried that, but --prunepaths='/cygdrive/c/System.Volume.Information' still caused the corresponding directory to be searched. I didn't have time to look further

Eric Blake: /usr/bin/find: /c/System Volume Information: Permission denied Not a problem - you can't find details about certain in-use system files. I don't think that was the question. If you note at the end of his message, he gives the command invocation, which included that string in

Installing from local directory -- trying to avoid massive duplication of effort

2002-03-14 Thread Phil Edwards
The closest FAQ I could find was How do I install everything? which may or may not apply to my situation, I don't know. (I suspect it does, unfortunately.) We need to install Cygwin on a /lot/ of W2K boxes, and we need to include some packages not in the base set (openssh and its prereqs, for
