Cygwin does not like having more than one copy of cygwin1.dll available (which is generally a good think considering the problems of DLL hell). In the installer I check if cygwin1.dll exists in the current search path. If it does, I do not install it again, so an old copy does not get updated. Perhaps the cleanest thing is a note to uninstall any old versions of mspgcc before installing the new one. Welcome to DLL hell. You think its bad in the world of English Windows? Try adding Asian language support to the mix and see if you can maintain a machine with everything working properly at the same time :-) Regards, Steve ------------------------------------------------------- Enterprise Linux Forum Conference & Expo, June 4-6, 2003, Santa Clara The only event dedicated to issues related to Linux enterprise solutions www.enterpriselinuxforum.com _______________________________________________ Mspgcc-users mailing list Mspgcc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mspgcc-users
