I think it is a quoting bug (there were embedded " inside long desc). When I replaced them all with ', locally, it seemed to work. What surprises me is that I didn't really change that part of libasprintf's setup.hint -- why did it break now, after being fine for two years? However, Corinna's fix is fine; I'll update my local sources. -- Chuck -- 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/
