Hmm - where's the line complaining about the missing dll? > >> I maintain upstream m4 and build on cygwin all the time, with no >> problems on my end. > Is it somehow possible to make m4 dependent on cygsigseg? So it wouldn't > be possible to install it without it (like I did...). It already is a dependency; I just checked the setup.hint on the cygwin site. Rerun setup.exe, and it should offer to install libsigsegv2-2.8-1 for you; I'm not sure why you missed it when you first installed, unless you chose not to pull in all required dependency packages. Meanwhile, a self-built m4 won't depend on libsigsegv unless you have libsigsegv-2.8-1 installed. -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
