I'll have a go at PrereqChecker::isMet() then.
I had a go at it, see below. Does it make sense? I tested this by
selecting *only* the flac-devel package, which resulted in the following

Package: libFLAC8

Looks good, doesn't it? Do you have another useful test for this code?

The second run has to test all packages in the unmet map. Only in that second run we set the flag to make sure that every package is only tested once for its direct dependencies. In every run of the loop, only the packages which have been added in the previous run are tested.

Hang on, I don't think iterating over 'unmet' while inserting elements
into it is valid, because it's a map (i.e. probably a binary tree).
Actually, it is valid, but we'll miss out on any packages that happen
to be inserted before the iterator, which of course is why
'foundUnmet2ndLevel' is there.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated xorg-server-1.8.2-1
The following package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution: *** xorg-server-1.8.2-1 *** xorg-server-dmx-1.8.2-1 This is an update to the latest upstream release of the X servers. Support for RANDR display resizing was added. In windowed mode, this requires the XWin -resize option; in multiwindow mode, the display will automatically resize to match a change in Windows display resolution. See XWin(1) for details.

In windowed mode, this requires the XWin -resize option; in multiwindow mode, the display will automatically resize to match a change in Windows display resolution. See XWin(1) for details. I'm afraid I made a mistake when updating the XWin(1) man page when adding the description of '-resize'. '-resize' is also required in multiwindow mode to activate resize support. Also, something like the following needs to be added: In -multwindow or -rootless mode, if the X screen is of the same dimensions as a Windows monitor or the virtual desktop, the X server will respond to the WM_DISPLAYCHANGED sent when those dimensions change by resizing the X screen. Changing the size of the X screen using the RANDR extension is not permitted. We'll probably make -resize on by default in -multiwindow mode in the future, after more testing and feedback. Additional patches: - Generate X keycodes for multimedia keys. - Update mapping for Canadian keyboard layouts. - Add -resize command line option. - Internal WM workaround for Java AWT bug. - Fix a GDI bitmap resource leak of window icons. - Store pthread_ids and chain IOError handlers to avoid longjmp across threads. Just to clarify, this should fix the problem of X crashing during shutdown, leaving behind a stale lock file. Which should in turn fix the problem of not being able to start X if it was previously run by an Administrator if you aren't an Administrator. If there are still problems with multiple users of X on the same computer, either sequentially or in parallel, we'd like to hear about them. - Make select() poll and not block if there are unprocessed Windows messages. - Better keyboard debugging output. - Show any fatal error message. -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
Re: XWin crash after the launch of startkde on a remote Red Hat 5 machine
2010/8/3 Michel Hummel hummel.mic...@gmail.com:
Hello,
I'm using cygwin on Microsoft Windows XP with XWin version :
sh-3.2# XWin.exe -version
Welcome to the XWin X Server
Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project
Release: 1.8.0.0 (1080)
Build Date: 2010-04-02
Contact: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com
I think I have found a bug in the XWin reset procedure which leads to
the start of two clipboard thread's and sometime to a crash of the X
server.
The crash can be produced by lauching startkde on a Red Hat 5 remote
machine (The crash should arrive after some minutes of work)
but the bug can simply be produced like this :
On my installation if I launch Xwin with this options :
XWin :0 -ac
then I do
xsetroot -solid '#00'
After setting the color, Xwin launches its reset procedure because
there is no more client connected ( the server loses the color but it
is the normal comportment isn't it ?
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-xfree/2002-01/msg00106.html)
The problem comes from the clipboard thread. In this example, when the
server launches its reset procedure, the clipboard is in state
Launched but is not in state Started (Boolean variable about
clipboard status, see file hw/xwin/winclipboardthread.c).
This particular status of the ClipboardThread during server reset is
normaly managed by two if statements :
* An if in the file hw/xwin/InitOutput.c disables the exit of the
clipboard thread in this state
Extract of the file hw/xwin/InitOutput.c (with line number) :
169 winClipboardShutdown (void)
170 {
171 /* Close down clipboard resources */
172 if (g_fClipboard g_fClipboardLaunched g_fClipboardStarted)
173 {
174 /* Synchronously destroy the clipboard window */
175 if (g_hwndClipboard != NULL)
176 {
177 SendMessage (g_hwndClipboard, WM_DESTROY, 0, 0);
178 /* NOTE: g_hwndClipboard is set to NULL in
winclipboardthread.c */
179 }
180 else
181 return;
182
183 /* Wait for the clipboard thread to exit */
184 pthread_join (g_ptClipboardProc, NULL);
185
186 g_fClipboardLaunched = FALSE;
187 g_fClipboardStarted = FALSE;
188
189 winDebug (winClipboardShutdown - Clipboard thread has exited.\n);
190 }
191 }
* An if statement in the file hw/xwin/winclipboardwrappers.c
prohibits the launch of clipboard thread if one is already Launched.
Extract of the file hw/xwin/winclipboardwrappers.c (with line number)
256 /* If the clipboard client has already been started, abort */
257 if (g_fClipboardLaunched)
258 {
259 ErrorF (winProcEstablishConnection - Clipboard client already
260 launched, returning.\n);
261 return iReturn;
262 }
The problem is that the Boolean variables g_fClipboardLaunched and
g_fClipboardStarted are re-initialized by the server reset procedure
(function winInitializeGlobals of the file hw/xwin/winglobals.c)
Extract of the file hw/xwin/winglobals.c (with line number)
128 /*
129 * Re-initialize global variables that are invalidated 130 * by a
server reset.
131 */
132
133 void
134 winInitializeGlobals (void)
135 {
136 g_dwCurrentThreadID = GetCurrentThreadId ();
137 g_hwndKeyboardFocus = NULL;
138 #ifdef XWIN_CLIPBOARD
139 g_fClipboardLaunched = FALSE;
140 g_fClipboardStarted = FALSE;
141 g_iClipboardWindow = None;
142 g_pClipboardDisplay = NULL;
143 g_atomLastOwnedSelection = None;
144 g_hwndClipboard = NULL;
145 #endif
146 }
The consequence of this Re-initialization in this particular situation
is that the clipboard thread is launched two times and sometimes leads
to a crash of the X server.
You can see the double launch of the clipboard thread at the end of
the attached log file Xwin.0.log ( 2 times the sentence :
winClipboardProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened
the display. )
To fix this bug I purpose to remove the variables g_fClipboardLaunched
and g_fClipboardStarted of the winInitializeGlobals (void) function,
as their re-initializations are handled in in the files :
hw/xwin/InitOutput.c.
That what is doing the patch Attached to this email.
Regards,
Michel Hummel
Hello,
I didn't saw any response to my patch proposition, did someone tried it ?
If I didn't posted it in the good place where should I have to
I will be happy to explain the problem if my first mail wasn't clear.

dvd has korean file names that are now question marks
hi, im not a programmer, i know very little MSDOS, i know windows xp well. i have some dvds that i used to back up some files but unfortunately all the files with korean names were then changed as the disk was burned. so now they are all question marks (bad file naming according to windows) so i cannot transfer the files from the dvd to my c drive or anywhere else for that matter OR even open them up from the drive (yes, i've already tried that, to rename the files but i can't even open up the files to rename them). i want to take the files off of the dvd and store them on my external hard drive now. can cygwin help with this...i've read for days now the user guide, the mailing list archives but truthfully i don't know where to start. i kinda need it set up like this step 1: do this, step 2: do this since i'm not a programmer. i have also exhausted many other options before i even installed or heard of cygwin. nothing worked. can someone take me through a step by step process to recover these renamed files? cheers denise -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: mintty-0.8.1-1
mintty 0.8.1-1 is on its way to the Cygwin mirrors. This is a feature
release with a few enhancements and fixes also some fairly big
behind-the-scenes changes.
DESCRIPTION
===
Mintty is a terminal emulator for Cygwin with a native Windows user
interface and minimalist design. Among its features are Unicode
support and a graphical options dialog. Its terminal emulation is
largely compatible with xterm, but it does not require an X server.
Mintty is based on code from PuTTY by Simon Tatham and team.
CHANGES
===
- Copy-on-select is enabled by default.
- The default font size was reduced from 10 to 9, more in line with
the Windows console's default.
- I/O handling was redesigned using /dev/windows and select(). The
result of this is that signals sent to mintty are now handled
immediately. In particular, suspending mintty works properly now.
- A new option allows to put the scrollbar on the left-hand side of
the window. It's on the 'Window' pane of the options dialog.
- The line cursor is displayed with the thickness configured in the
Windows accessibility control panel (which defaults to 1 pixel).
- Excess line content is no longer thrown away when narrowing the
window, i.e. it now reappears if the window is widened again
afterwards. (Rebreaking of long lines is not done though.)
- Changing the font smoothing setting takes effect immediately after
pressing OK or Apply.
- Failure to save options triggers an error message instead of
silently forgetting the options.
- A couple of annoyances in the handling of mouse clicks were fixed.
QUESTIONS
=
The mintty manual is installed as a manpage ('man mintty'), and it's
also available in PDF format at
http://mintty.googlecode.com/files/mintty-0.8.1.pdf.
Questions and comments can be sent to the mintty discussion group at
http://groups.google.com/group/mintty-discuss or the Cygwin mailing
list at cyg...@cygwin.com. Please use the issue tracker at
http://code.google.com/p/mintty/issues/list to report bugs or suggest
enhancements.
To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link
on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to
your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.

Greetings, Andy Koppe! - It seems that Monospace font is not available with non-X11 applications.

dash dash?
Attempting to do some housecleaning and uninstall packages I no longer use, I attempted to uninstall dash, but Setup informs me that it is required by rebase. Wouldn't bash or the Bourne shell be a more appropriate choice? Sure, dash is smaller than either, but efficiency isn't critical for an application such as rebase. I then ran man dash and found two places in the man page that use the Unicode MATHEMATICAL LEFT/RIGHT ANGLE BRACKET (U+27E8/27E9) symbols. These symbols probably don't render properly on most folk's systems, so IMHO are a poor choice of symbols to use in a man page. In an example, it shows: lf foobar ⟨return⟩ --Ken Nellis

Sure, dash is smaller than either, but efficiency isn't critical for an application such as rebase. rebaseall (which is a wrapper around rebase) _cannot_ rebase an in-use .dll. Dash has fewer in-use dlls than bash. Therefore, dash is the (much) better choice for rebase. By the way, the Bourne shell is pretty much obsolete. On Solaris, /bin/sh is still the Bourne shell, but on every other system, /bin/sh aims to be POSIX-compatible (the historic Bourne shell does not comply with POSIX). And for portability reasons, you are better off writing a POSIX-compatible script that can use /bin/sh rather than requiring /bin/bash. I'm also entertaining the notion of following Debian's lead and switching /bin/sh to dash, since dash is noticeably faster than bash if your script is POSIX-conforming. Not very seriously yet, but it's not out of the question. I then ran man dash and found two places in the man page that use the Unicode MATHEMATICAL LEFT/RIGHT ANGLE BRACKET (U+27E8/27E9) symbols.

The dirent struct
I'm well in to the process of porting rtorrent to Cygwin but I've hit
a bit of a snag with the dirent struct. Namely:
/usr/src/rtorrent/rtorrent-0.8.6-1/src/rtorrent-0.8.6/src/utils/directory.cc:79:
error: ‘struct dirent’ has no member named ‘d_fileno’
/usr/src/rtorrent/rtorrent-0.8.6-1/src/rtorrent-0.8.6/src/utils/directory.cc:80:
error: ‘struct dirent’ has no member named ‘d_reclen’
which sure enough, the Cygwin dirent struct does not:
struct dirent
{
long __d_version; /* Used internally */
__ino64_t d_ino;
unsigned char d_type;
unsigned char __d_unused1[3];
__uint32_t __d_internal1;
char d_name[NAME_MAX + 1];
};
I assume d_fileno and d_reclen may be part of __d_unused1 or
__d_internal1? I'd appreciate some help here, since I'm not sure what
to do at this point.
Thank you,
Chris

No, they are not part of either of those fields. If they were

They simply are not implemented.
And they don't have to. Per POSIX, only d_ino and d_name can be

Moses with Cygwin on Windows 7
Dear all, We wish to install the Moses SMT system (http://www.statmt.org/moses/) on a Windows system. It requires an Unix-like environment, and we have successfully used Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/) with Moses on Windows XP. We are now considering running it on a Windows 7 system. If you have experiences of using Cygwin, and Moses in particular, on a Windows 7 system, I should be grateful if you could advise on any problems, solutions, or whether in fact the installation and performance is more or less the same as on Windows XP.

Re: Vertical split in GNU screen
Hi, i'm new with mailing-lists use! i'd like to re-talk about a feature with cygwin screen! How can we add the marvellous Vertical split in GNU screen with cygwin? I know there were a talk about that between Jeenu V jeenuv at gmail dot com and Andrew Schulman schulman dot andrew at epamail dot epa dot gov the 19 Apr 2010! Thanks in advance for somebody answer! If i'm not at the right place to talk about this or if i don't use this list in the good way, please don't shout at me, just show me! Florent LOTTIN Hi Florent. There is a patch that's been available for a while, that adds vertical split support to screen. I believe that Debian, Ubuntu, and probably others already incorporate it into their official screen packages. I remember the exchange with Jeenu, and after that I did go get the patch, build screen with it for Cygwin, and try it out. What I found, if I remember right, is that I saw a lot of what I considered strange behavior, and very little documentation or help about how the vertical split feature is supposed to work. It didn't seem to me to be working very well, so I put it aside. If people would like to try out the patched version, I can post it as a test release. Maybe you can tell me if the vertical split feature is working the way it's supposed to.

RE: incompatible environment variable names
Nellis, Kenneth:
I came across an interesting (IMHO) incompatibility between Windows and bash
environment variable names.
You can create odd environment names on Unixish systems too, but nobody relies
on them.
I've had the same issue; a build environment I use required the presence of
variable names with '(' and ')' in them. For the moment, I've hacked around the
issue by calling cmd.exe to do the work before launching the build system
proper, but eventually, in my Copious Free Time(TM), my plan is to patch bash
and add raw-getenv and raw-setenv builtins that do the obvious thing.

Pipe creation failure (win32 error 1) again -- not BLODA
I'm running into sporadic failures with pipe creation; the exact errors (from a service logfile) are: 0 [sig] grep 1204 C:\cygwin\bin\grep.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't create signal pipe, Win32 error 1 0 [sig] sleep 6244 C:\cygwin\bin\sleep.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't create signal pipe, Win32 error 1 I've changed the service to work in a writeable directory, so I might have stack traces soon.

It shouldn't be able to fail that way.

Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? It's complicated. The upstream maintainer of gettext REALLY dislikes a mechanism used for symbol resolution by the GNU toolchain (gcc/ld) with DLLs on mingw and cygwin: auto-import. So, he arranges that gettext is always compiled with --disable-auto-import. However, recent versions of g++'s runtime library, libstdc++, ITSELF, require auto-import when linking IIUC. Hence, boom. I'm not sure this is easily fixed. IF I am correct, there are two options: (1) teach g++ how to build a libstdc++ DLL that exports symbols properly rather than requiring auto-import. This depends on a new cygwin g++ compiler I think. OR, (2) override the build procedure for gettext to ensure that --enable-auto-import is provided on every link command, AFTER the default gettext setting of --disable-auto-import. IIRC, just setting LDFLAGS before configuring won't do it, because Bruno *deliberately* arranged things to make overriding his desired auto-import behavior difficult. -- Chuck -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Interesting. From an rtorrent perspective it's working as expected, but as I previously stated, although rtorrent grabs the value, it doesn't actually seem to do anything with it. I'll leave it as is for now (I figure having something there is better than nothing at all). Cheers!

Updated: mintty-0.8.1-1
mintty 0.8.1-1 is on its way to the Cygwin mirrors. This is a feature
release with a few enhancements and fixes also some fairly big
behind-the-scenes changes.
DESCRIPTION
===
Mintty is a terminal emulator for Cygwin with a native Windows user
interface and minimalist design. Among its features are Unicode
support and a graphical options dialog. Its terminal emulation is
largely compatible with xterm, but it does not require an X server.
Mintty is based on code from PuTTY by Simon Tatham and team.
CHANGES
===
- Copy-on-select is enabled by default.
- The default font size was reduced from 10 to 9, more in line with
the Windows console's default.
- I/O handling was redesigned using /dev/windows and select(). The
result of this is that signals sent to mintty are now handled
immediately. In particular, suspending mintty works properly now.
- A new option allows to put the scrollbar on the left-hand side of
the window. It's on the 'Window' pane of the options dialog.
- The line cursor is displayed with the thickness configured in the
Windows accessibility control panel (which defaults to 1 pixel).
- Excess line content is no longer thrown away when narrowing the
window, i.e. it now reappears if the window is widened again
afterwards. (Rebreaking of long lines is not done though.)
- Changing the font smoothing setting takes effect immediately after
pressing OK or Apply.
- Failure to save options triggers an error message instead of
silently forgetting the options.
- A couple of annoyances in the handling of mouse clicks were fixed.
