Are you unpacking this .tar.bz2 with some kind of non-Cygwin utility like winzip or winrar? That will give you a false sense of something being broken because they don't understand links. emacs-21.2.exe is a link in the tarball. If you view the contents of this tarball with "tar jtvf" you will see: -rwxr-xr-t jhpb/domain users 4350464 2004-03-22 12:59 usr/bin/emacs.exe hrwxr-xr-t jhpb/domain users 0 2004-03-22 12:59 usr/bin/emacs-21.2.exe link to usr/bin/emacs.exe hrwxr-xr-t jhpb/domain users 0 2004-03-22 12:59 usr/bin/emacs-nox.exe link to usr/bin/emacs.exe So this is a red herring. I just installed the emacs and emacs-X11 21.2-13 packages with setup and both worked fine in console and X11 mode. I did have to replace cygreadline7.dll with an unrebased one but that is a known issue. > Perhaps an accident might happen to collapse the package of emacs-X11 for > 21.2-13 on the cygwin root > server. > This is the truly happening now, please correct them by the maintainers team. There's no need to be alarmist, the package is fine.
