After my latest upgrade of sh-utils (2.0.15.1) the nohup script has
disappeared. Is this correct? The keychain (SSH stuff) script uses nohup so
it needs modifications.
nohup exists in sh-utils 2.0.3.

I don't recall having the problem you're experiencing, but I'll give it a whirl tomorrow @ work and let you know what I find. I do remember getting mail from cygwin-cron at one point in time, but I don't recall what I did to make it work. If I get to work, I'll let you know how.

I run startup.exe and go through the

I cannot select any packages and the

Something I'm doing wrong?

I've made a new version of the sh-utils available for download. This is
a refresh of the GNU package. I've removed uptime from this package
since it conflicts with the program with similar functionality in
procps. There was also, briefly, a sh-utils-2.0.15-1 package which
lacked 'nohup'. The 'n

In automake-devel, there has been a long-standing test failure
('subobj9'). It now passes, and I think it's because of Corinna and
Pierre's work with permissions in 1.3.18.

Does main.c include stdio.h? stdio.h (in /usr/include) is where
setlinebuf() is defined.
