Thank you, but I find catalog already present, as a file rather than a directory; so I'll hold off unless you say mkdir is really what I should do: = $ cat /etc/xml/catalog http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/release/1.0/catalog.dtd";> $ = On Sun, Ju

E.M., Your recipe has worked for me. I've successfully installed scipy per your instructions. Thanks for your time and patience. I have wanted to use scipy in Cygwin for three or four years, but had not asked here until yesterday. Please don't apologize for abbreviating the package names at first.

Why is there no version 3.7 option for package "python3-devel" (but there are 3.6 and 3.8 options)?

2020-06-21 Thread My Name via Cygwin
In the Cygwin installer, the version options for "python3-devel" are several sub-versions of 3.6 and a ("Test") version of 3.8, but there's no option for any 3.7. However, "python37-devel" is another option in the installer. Why? I have never understood exactly the difference between the "python3-d
