Thanks, my apologies for asking a FAQ; I didn't see it on the list. I'll give these methods a try and see how it goes.
Having done the make/make install from my source tree, do I have to repair anything now? Where can I find more information on the rationale behind not building in the src directory? Why does the README in the cygwin package say: >It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of >tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, >run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: > > ./configure > make if this is the incorrect way to do it? -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: egor duda [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Hi! > > Wednesday, 05 December, 2001 Peter Buckley [EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: > > PB> You need to bunzip2 and untar the src, then cd to > PB> /usr/src/cygwin-1.3.5-3 (or wherever you extracted it to) and do the > PB> following: > > PB> mkdir build > PB> cd build > PB> ../configure > PB> make > PB> make install > > please, don't make wrong suggestions! > > this way is _wrong_. for a correct way, check the FAQ, particularly > question "How do I rebuild the tools on my NT box?" > > cygwin sources also contain a file how-to-debug-cygwin.txt which > contains several debugging hints. > > Egor. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ 5165414 FidoNet 2:5020/496.19 > -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
