I've made a very minor update to the gettext package on sourceware. gettext is the GNU package which provides 'national language support' for other programs. It includes a number of utility programs as well as a library, libintl, that can be linked to your own programs. CHANGES: o removed /usr/info/dir from the binary package This was done to prevent overwriting an existing file of the same name. Remember to make a backup of your current /usr/info/dir BEFORE installing this new package -- since setup UNISTALLS the previous version it will *remove* /usr/info/dir. Actually, according to Earnie Boyd, you're better off if the directory file name is "/usr/info/dir.info" instead of "/usr/info/dir". To recreate a clobbered or missing /usr/info/dir{.info}, do this: for each base info file (that is, cvs.info, not cvs.info-1, cvs.info-2 etc) run the following command: install-info --dir-file=/usr/info/dir.info --info-file=/usr/info/foo.info INSTALLATION: To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Run setup and answer all of the questions. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE choose a mirror site for your download. The 'sources.redhat.com' site is badly overloaded. The mirrors below have the latest version of this package: ftp://ftp.sunsite.utk.edu/pub/cygwin/ (US) ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ (Germany) ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/pc/cygwin/ (Greece) The setup.exe program will figure out what needs to be updated on your system and should install the gettext package automatically. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin general. If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe to the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
