The goal of this ticket is that a person can:
1. Install Cygwin and certain standard Cygwin packages (listed below).
2. Extract the Sage tarball and type "`make`"
and have everything build automatically with no errors. The goal is
'''not''' that the resulting build works or Sage starts up. That will be
for a later ticket.
----
== Current instructions (work on Windows XP with Cygwin 1.7.3 and Windows
7 with Cygwin 1.7.9) ==
=== Cygwin prereqs ===
* Be sure to install `file`, `liblapack`, `liblapack0`, `liblapack-
devel`.
* Probably also need `libiconv` and `openssl`.
* Since we will go with #11232, install `patch`.
* On Windows 7 (or both) install `libncurses-devel`.
* Don't forget `fortran`.
* Make sure you download all `gcc` and `g++` so the versions match.
* Also, '''don't forget to''' {{{export SAGE_PORT=yes}}}!

[http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/raw-
attachment/ticket/11499/trac_11499.patch the patch at Trac 11499], #11499
This should then work 'out of the box', modulo rebasing issues (see
[wiki:CygwinPort]) and the continuing saga of building Maxima effectively
(see #11502, #11260, but also some recent probable changes in ECL).
----
Older instructions:
I have put a binary of my Cygwin build here:
http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/wstein/tmp/sage-4.1-cygwin-i686-CYGWIN_NT-5.1.tar.gz
Things like "`sage -ipython`" and many non-Sage imports work. Just
starting Sage doesn't, maybe because of the Sage<-->pynac binding not
building.

`complex.h`
* #8279 -- Cygwin: cliquer names the library incorrectly for Cygwin
* #8280 -- zn_poly shared library named incorrectly on Cygwin
Required Cygwin packages beyond the usual:
* GCC 4.3.2
* `gfortran`
* `libncurses-devel`
* `lapack`
* `openssl-devel`
* `libiconv` -- needed when building R (and it has to be `libiconv`)
We need to add a test for '''all''' of the above to the prereq script
before making the Cygwin port official.

Comment(by leif):
FLINT spkg now references the new p8 ([re]based on the latest p7 from
#11246), located on `spkg-upload`.
