Re: Ruby EOL in Cygwin 3.4.9?

This is why I asked, would it make sense to just not release new non emergency versions of Cygwin with EOL packages, until that can be remedied. Cygwin "releases" are just releases of the compatibility library, similar to the kernel in a Linux distribution. Cygwin doesn't have the equivalent of Debian releases, where all packages are tested for compatibility and released as a unit. For that reason, it doesn't make sense to pause Cygwin "releases" just because some of the packages are out-of-date, since Cygwin is itself just another one of these packages. -- David Rothenberger daver...@acm.org -- 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

[TEST] Updated: rdiff-backup-2.0.0-2
Fix "local" typo. DESCRIPTION: rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another, possibly over a network. The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory, but extra reverse diffs are stored in a special subdirectory of that target directory, so you can still recover files lost some time ago. The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental backup. rdiff-backup also preserves subdirectories, hard links, dev files, permissions, uid/gid ownership, modification times, extended attributes, acls, and resource forks. Also, rdiff-backup can operate in a bandwidth efficient manner over a pipe, like rsync. Thus you can use rdiff-backup and ssh to securely back a hard drive up to a remote location, and only the differences will be transmitted. Finally, rdiff-backup is easy to use and settings have sensical defaults.

The suite includes: * Command-line applications to: * retrieve information from an SNMP-capable device, either using single requests (snmpget, snmpgetnext), or multiple requests (snmpwalk, snmptable, snmpdelta). * manipulate configuration information on an SNMP-capable device (snmpset). * retrieve a fixed collection of information from an SNMP-capable device (snmpdf, snmpnetstat, snmpstatus). * convert between numerical and textual forms of MIB OIDs, and display MIB content and structure (snmptranslate). * A graphical MIB browser (tkmib), using Tk/perl. * A daemon application for receiving SNMP notifications (snmptrapd). Selected notifications can be logged (to syslog, the NT Event Log, or a plain text file), forwarded to another SNMP management system, or passed to an external application. * An extensible agent for responding to SNMP queries for management information (snmpd). This includes built-in support for a wide range of MIB information modules, and can be extended using dynamically loaded modules, external scripts and commands, and both the SNMP multiplexing (SMUX) and Agent Extensibility (AgentX) protocols. * A library for developing new SNMP applications, with both C and perl APIs.

I have yet to package the latest Subversion release. I no longer use Subversion and the build process is quite complicated. Maintaining the Cygwin port has always been near the limits of my abilities, and since I no longer use Subversion, I've simply lost interest. If you would like to take over maintenance of Subversion, I'd be happy to support you as much as I can. ;-) > There is no easy way for further debugging. A serf-debuginfo package > exists, but its tarball is empty... serf switched to scons as a build platform. scons is written in Python and aims to replace autoconf/automake. scons knew nothing about Cygwin when serf switched to it, so I had to teach it to build Cygwin stuff. I am NOT a Python programmer, but I managed to get it working. Well, everything except the debug packages. If you know Python, please have a try fixing it. Otherwise, you can rebuild serf from source with debugging enabled and without stripping the symbols.

This can happen if you have Cygwin processes running when you run setup and you ignore warnings. If I were you, I would first try a reboot. If that doesn't work, I would ensure that all Cygwin processes and services are stopped and then use setup to reinstall all your packages.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: net-snmp-5.7.3-1
CYGWIN NEWS: === * Enabled IPv6 support DESCRIPTION: Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a widely used protocol for monitoring the health and welfare of network equipment (eg. routers), computer equipment and even devices like UPSs. Net-SNMP is a suite of applications used to implement SNMP v1, SNMP v2c and SNMP v3 using both IPv4 and IPv6. The suite includes: * Command-line applications to: * retrieve information from an SNMP-capable device, either using single requests (snmpget, snmpgetnext), or multiple requests (snmpwalk, snmptable, snmpdelta). * manipulate configuration information on an SNMP-capable device (snmpset). * retrieve a fixed collection of information from an SNMP-capable device (snmpdf, snmpnetstat, snmpstatus). * convert between numerical and textual forms of MIB OIDs, and display MIB content and structure (snmptranslate). * A graphical MIB browser (tkmib), using Tk/perl. * A daemon application for receiving SNMP notifications (snmptrapd). Selected notifications can be logged (to syslog, the NT Event Log, or a plain text file), forwarded to another SNMP management system, or passed to an external application. * An extensible agent for responding to SNMP queries for management information (snmpd). This includes built-in support for a wide range of MIB information modules, and can be extended using dynamically loaded modules, external scripts and commands, and both the SNMP multiplexing (SMUX) and Agent Extensibility (AgentX) protocols. * A library for developing new SNMP applications, with both C and perl APIs. CYGWIN NOTES: = * The snmpd daemon does not provide much useful information. Installing it as a service under Cygwin is left as an exercise for the user.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: libaprutil1-1.6.0-1
DESCRIPTION: The mission of the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) project is to create and maintain software libraries that provide a predictable and consistent interface to underlying platform-specific implementations. The primary goal is to provide an API to which software developers may code and be assured of predictable if not identical behaviour regardless of the platform on which their software is built, relieving them of the need to code special-case conditions to work around or take advantage of platform-specific deficiencies or features.

CYGWIN NEWS: The library was built with TCP_NOPUSH support disabled. Cygwin defines TCP_NOPUSH, but returns "protocol not defined" when it's used. According to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms738596%28v=vs.85%29.aspx this is because Windows doesn't support it.
