There was a new upstream release, rsync-3.2.7, and I've updated my cygport and its associated artifacts: https://github.com/crd477/cygports/tree/main/rsync # Enable this function for releases that work without autoreconf src_compile() You should only override the default src_compile if it doesn't work. The fact that autoreconf isn't apparently necessary, doesn't mean it should be omitted, since that means that future fixes to the autoconfiguration machinery aren't automatically incorporated into the package, but will only appear when upstream updates the autotools used to generate the distributed autoconfiguration files. OK, got it. My current cygport no longer skips the cygautoreconf step. Thanks... -- -Chad

[PATCH] Fix typo in faq-programming.xml
Hi there, This is my first time submitting a patch over email, so hopefully I'll get it right. Are there eventually plans for submitting merge requests directly with git in some way? This is a simple one-line patch to fix a typo I noticed in the programming FAQ. Patch follows below. I follow the list via GMANE, but to make sure I see any replies, it's probably best to reply to cygwin at hamishmb dot com.

You could try https://inbox.sourceware.org/cygwin/ -- I assume that's at least semi-official, given it's hosted by sourceware.org, and it has a search function and archives that seem to go back at least as far as 1997. That'll also let you access the archives in a variety of other ways (IMAP, Git, ...) so you can set up your own search tools, should you be so minded. (Use OfflineIMAP to clone the archives to a spare Gmail account, then use Gmail's search tools, perhaps?) Otherwise, you can browse the archive at https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/. I'm not sure how you got to the python.org site, but I don't think that'll ever get you very far! -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

xxhash packages update
I've updated the cygport to the current upstream release version, 0.8.1: https://github.com/crd477/xxhash-cygport This version also fixes a minor problem with the existing libxxhash-devel package - the import lib is incorrectly installed as a copy of the dll. Thanks... -- -Chad
How to search this Archive
I know I have asked this before but because I cannot search the Archive I cannot find the query or any responses. One used to be able to type site:cygwin.com "keyword1 keyword2 .." into Google and depending on the search string(s) a slew of results appeared. This way, one could find all the posts that one had ever originated or contributed to; or every mention of chmod; or, with care, recover a particular thread. Now, this approach still kind of works, but in such a restricted manner that the effort is not rewarded. (Either Google has changed practice or pipermail is not accessible in this way - as from memory cygwin.com/ml/ was .. .. ) I explored https://mail.python.org/pipermail/ but to no useful effect. Is there a way to explore the entire archive back to 1997?
