John, i think the major issue here is people are confused with how
prc-tools and cygwin relate to each other.. previously, they were
two seperate downloads + installs - and, people are still thinking
it is the same..
not everyone is up-to-date with the inner workings of cygwin..
the new cygwin (changed from v20) - gave us this great module approach
for "packages" we install.. what needs to be conveyed in the setup is
the following:
- install cygwin
- install the following packages to cygwin
. bash
. make
. prc-tools
. pilrc
there are more packages, but, you get the idea.. prc-tools is no longer
a "seperate" program as it used to be - but, instead it is an integrated
package of cygwin. all the paths/environment variables etc are handled
internally within cygwin ..
i dont think you need to change the windows install.. i prefer the
tar.gz approach and installing it as a package :) updating with this
approach is a breeze too.. i dont know why i didn't migrate over to
2.0.xx earlier.. updating to 2.1RC1 took like a whole 20 seconds..
