First of all, thank you very much for including nickle in this
upload, despite its flaws. It's working great in my application.
I did have an issue with the installation process, however. I
copied and pasted the sed command from the web page and got this
error:
$ sed -i -e "/^setup-timestamp:/ s/ \(.*\)/ $(date +%s)/" \
> "$(cygpath -u "$(sed -e ':a;N;$!ba;s|\n| |g;s|.*last-cache \t\([^
]*\).*|\1|;'
/etc/setup/setup.rc)")/ftp%3a%2f%2fsourceware.org%2fpub%2fcygwinports/setup.ini"
sed: can't read
/cygdrive/c/Documents/ftp%3a%2f%2fsourceware.org%2fpub%2fcygwinports/setup.ini:
No such file or directory
So apparently the command does not handle spaces in the path to
setup.ini. I didn't try to find the error but I did figure out what
the command was trying to do, so I edited it and executed this
instead, which worked.
$ sed -i -e "/^setup-timestamp:/ s/ \(.*\)/ $(date +%s)/"
/cygdrive/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/garyjohn/Application\
Data/Cygwin/packages/ftp%3a%2f%2fsourceware.org%2fpub%2fcygwinports/setup.ini
Thanks again.
Regards,
Gary
