Well, I think I was wrong about pointing fingers at "install-info". The
install-info was a guess
Hi,
Please point out if I'm wrong or misinformed...
I'm trying to trace down the Vista cygwin setup.exe
/etc/postinstall/gnuplot.sh "hang forever at 99%" problem.
The current /etc/postinstall/gnuplot.sh contains the line:
/usr/bin/install-info --dir-file=/usr/share/info/dir
--info-file=/usr/s

Hell, you can make the whole thing "
For getting the installation to keep going, killing off an sh.exe process via
Task Manager's End Process, moves things along. This also seems to need to
be done for "texf" (I think that was the name) package.
At least we get to the final setup screen this way :-)

I've had this problem with my installation as well and solve it by using the
Windows XP Service Pack 2 compatibility mode (selectable in the Properties
window of the Cygwin setup.exe executable).
It installs fine now... hope it works out for you too.

Have you reviewed the thread and worked through things already covered?
If so, what have you found?

Im not sure they are "broken" in the purest sense, however I waited
over 2 hours for the gnuplot.sh script to finish. It never did. The
script seems simple:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f /usr/bin/texhash ]
then
/usr/bin/texhash
fi
/usr/bin/install-info --dir-file=/usr/share/info/dir
--info-file=/usr/shar

How did you verify whether they are actually broken, or were just taking so
long to run that you thought they were stuck?

Here are the two files I found broken on the installation:
gnuplot.sh
postinstall-ec-fonts-mftraced.sh
And just for kicks
How do I manually change the passwd and group files. Although under
windows Im listed as an administrator, cygwin states my group as none.
And Im unable to chmod chgroup the
13 matches
