Hi all, Copy of:
generator under Cygwin fails with: Fatal error: exception Unix.Unix_error(Unix.EAGAIN, "fork", "") · Issue #45 · libguestfs/libguestfs https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/issues/45 ... since I realised late I shouldn't post on GitHub issues. I managed to pass the configure stage in Cygwin on windows 10 with: CFLAGS=-fPIC ./autogen.sh --disable-daemon --disable-appliance --with-distro=cygwin ... (and installing relevant Cygwin libraries), with version: ``` user@PC /cygdrive/c/src/libguestfs_git $ git log --oneline -1 088b6d1c8 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) get-kernel: fallback to uncompressed vmlinux kernels ``` The setup at end of configure is this: ``` Thank you for downloading libguestfs 1.42.0 This is how we have configured the optional components for you today: Daemon .............................. no Appliance ........................... no QEMU ................................ /cygdrive/c/bin/qemu/qemu-system-x86_64 guestfish and C-based virt tools .... yes FUSE
