Install.exe glitch: percentage complete portion of the Cygwin Setup header displays 100% completion
I was installing the setup as found off the main install page as of 11/7/2012 9:00 PM MST Current setup is at 480% complete and counting? I also tried the installer on a second rig, and this exhibited the same behavior. Reproduction: 1) Setup a pristine box (in my case a win7 SP1 and an R2 instance) 2) Run Setup.exe 3) Root folder is c:\cygwin\root 4) Package folder is c:\cygwin\packages 5) installer option is to change the root all option to install (e.g. a kitchen sink install) Is there any other logs/modes I shoulod be looking at to get further details? I also have screen captures from both installs, and can grant some access to the second rig if need be? Thanks! Arthur Strutzenberg

Perhaps a message: tag should be added to libaspell15's setup.hint to remind users to install the aspell-* for their preferred language(s)?

Re: git fork failure on pull with a workaround (hopefully a clue for a fix)

The first step is to follow the problem reporting guidelines: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Following them may reveal a conflicting cygwin.dll file or something similar in your full path which is interfering with some git subcommand loading properly. Given that a PATH of just /usr/bin works for you, try appending progressively more segments of your original path until the problem reproduces. Once you find a PATH that reliably fails, remove the last added segment as a suspect and continue adding the remaining segments from the original PATH until you are left with a good PATH and a list of suspects. Then go back to the PATH of /usr/bin and append each suspect individually and test again to see if the suspects are the problem alone. Since its also possible that you may be encountering some PATH length limit here, it may also be worthwhile to report the output of the following command: echo $PATH | wc -c Good luck! -Jeremy -- 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
RE: git gui 1.7.9-1: spell checking is unavailable error message
On Behalf Of Yaakov (Cygwin/X) en_US is the default, but if you chose another dictionary in the Options dialog, you would need that aspell-* package instead. There is even a none option there. So it's hard to say that git-gui really needs aspell-en when it's up to the user as to which dictionary he chooses. OK, that makes sense. Any idea what caused the git-gui error message to start appearing after I ran setup.exe on Nov. 5? I've been running git-gui 1.7.9-1 since February, and I haven't changed my git-gui options recently. Git-gui was working fine with no error messages on Nov. 2.

Re: git gui 1.7.9-1: spell checking is unavailable error message
Greetings, Matt Seitz (matseitz)! On Behalf Of Yaakov (Cygwin/X) en_US is the default, but if you chose another dictionary in the Options dialog, you would need that aspell-* package instead. There is even a none option there. So it's hard to say that git-gui really needs aspell-en when it's up to the user as to which dictionary he chooses. OK, that makes sense. Any idea what caused the git-gui error message to start appearing after I ran setup.exe on Nov. 5? I've been running git-gui 1.7.9-1 since February, and I haven't changed my git-gui options recently. Git-gui was working fine with no error messages on Nov. 2. That could be an update in default package settings. Or a broken interoperability configuration on your side. Or... well, many possible reasons. The main question is how would you resolve it. You can disable spell checking, or install relevant dictionary, as suggested earlier. Regarding package dependencies, I think it's worth creating a fake package with short explanation of the implications of installing a software that include optional dependency on spell checker. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 08.11.2012, 05:27 Sorry for my terrible english... -- 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
Re: git gui 1.7.9-1: spell checking is unavailable error message
From: Matt Seitz (matseitz) Any idea what caused the git-gui error message to start appearing after I ran setup.exe on Nov. 5? I've been running git-gui 1.7.9-1 since February, and I haven't changed my git-gui options recently. Git-gui was working fine with no error messages on Nov. 2. I looked through setup.log. I see that something triggered aspell to be installed on Nov. 5: 2012/11/05 06:48:59 Adding required dependency aspell: Selecting version 0.60.6.1-1 for installation. 2012/11/05 06:48:59 Adding required dependency libaspell15: Selecting version 0.60.6.1-1 for installation. From what I've read, git-gui silently disables spell check if aspell is not installed. But if aspell is installed, git-gui tries to load it, and then load whatever dictionary is specified in the gui.spellingdictionary option. This option is not set on on my system, which apparently means use default dictionary. So, git-gui tries to load the default dictionary, and reports an error when it can't find it. It looks like the Fedora team originally installed the aspell-en dictionary by default whenever aspell was installed. Then they dropped it as a dependency for the same reason given earlier in this thread: that it's not really required for aspell. Then they made installing the aspell-en dictionary a requirement again, to avoid issues like this. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=494084 Does it make sense for Cygwin to follow Fedora's lead, and install aspell-en by default when aspell is installed? -- 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: mysql-5.5.28-1
The following packages have been updated for the Cygwin distribution: *** mysql-5.5.28-1 *** mysqld-5.5.28-1 *** mysql-test-5.5.28-1 *** libmysqlclient18-5.5.28-1 *** libmysqlclient-devel-5.5.28-1 *** libmysqld0-5.5.28-1 *** libmysqld-devel-5.5.28-1 MySQL Community Edition is a freely downloadable version of the world's most popular open source database that is supported by an active community of open source developers and enthusiasts. Please note that the server ('mysqld' package) should be considered *experimental*; for production use, I suggest using a native Windows version from dev.mysql.com. Input from experienced MySQL server administrators to improve this component would be welcome. The client library and apps are stable, but when connecting to a native Windows MySQL server on the same machine, you MUST use 127.0.0.1 as the hostname; 'localhost' is reserved for connecting to the Cygwin mysqld via a UNIX socket. This is an update to the latest upstream release. -- Yaakov Cygwin/X CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, please use the automated form at: http://cygwin.com/lists.html#subscribe-unsubscribe If this does not work, then look at the List-Unsubscribe: tag in the email header of this message.
