Yes. I have python 2.5 installed using Setup.exe. In debian I had the same issue with python enabled GDB. But I could solve it by installing the python2.5-dev development packages. I had a look at the files included in cygwin package (you mentioned) and the files in python2.5-dev deb package: http://packages.debian.org/lenny/i386/python2.5-dev/filelist The observation is that python static library (in case of linux- libpython2.5.so in /usr/lib/) is missing in cygwin and that is exactly what gcc is complaining when building gdb (please refer to the config log in my previous post). I dont know whether this is handled differently in cygwin. Please give your suggestions. -Sreejith -- 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/
