This is the first time I install XFree86 on Cygwin. I'm running all current packages and for now installed the following:
XFree86-bin-4.3.0-3 XFree86-bin-icons-4.3.0-2 XFree86-etc-4.3.0-3 XFree86-lib-4.3.0-1 XFree86-prog-4.3.0-5 XFree86-startup-scripts-4.2.0-5 XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-11 XFree86-xwinclip-4.3.0-1
I skipped XFree86-fenc-4.2.0-3 and XFree86-fnts-4.2.0-3 since I'm using the fonts from my Linux partition (mounted with Ext2fsd 0.10a) to save some space. I don't know if the segfault I get starting xedit is related. All other applications I tried work.
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts is a symlink to /l/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts, which is read-only (directories dr-xr-xr-x and files -r--r--r--). Since I'm not going to run mkfontdir I suppose it should work.
Are you asking us a question in the above? I didn't see one...
BTW, will XFree86-xwinclip-4.3.0-1 be recompiled ? It currently depends on XFree86-lib-compat.
I am not sure if I will recompile xwinclip. I might. I might not.
Can I ask why you are not using the internal version of xwinclip, accessed via the '-clipboard' parameter for XWin.exe?
