as I didn't find relevant info on the archive (I appologize if there were) I follow up this info to the Cygwin ML cause it could be to some interest to those who want Tk-804.027 on cygwin.

It is just that the state of cygwin on the moment Tk-804.027 was released was not as unix as Nick expected it to be. # cd Tk-804.027 # perl Makefile.PL x # cd pTk # ln -s tkUnixDefault.h tkWinDefault.h # cd .. # mv Makefile Makefile.old # sed -e s/tkWinDefault.h// Makefile.old > Makefile # export LDLOADLIBS=/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11-6.dll.a # make # find . -name \*.dll | xargs rebase -v -b 0x68000000 # make test # make install works for me -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
