Procexp showed that /usr/libexec/gam_server.exe has link to Emacs. There is another evidence::
bash# apt-cyg depends emacs-w32 | grep gamin 170:emacs-w32 > emacs > libglib2.0_0 > libfam0 > gamin 1533:emacs-w32 > libMagickCore6_2 > libcairo2 > libglib2.0_0 > libfam0 > gamin Previously asked: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-09/msg00241.html https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-09/msg00243.html Does gam_server have to run? but without any useful response except to uninstall gamin. If I proper understand libfam is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Alteration_Monitor I am not sure if Emacs need libfam0 via libglib2.0_0... So I unistalled gamin, but setup.exe ask about installing required packages and during next installation I'll get it. How can I "lock" package to prevent intalling even if it is "required". -- http://defun.work/ -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
