Aw: chere not seeing my preferred $HOME

/etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm refers to font "helvetica"

Since many months (and probably several Cygwin and X11 releases), starting `xterm` triggers the following annoying warning (xterm starts fine otherwise): xterm & Warning: Cannot convert string "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*" to type FontStruct I have grepped for

git clone fails with: error: chmod on config.lock failed: Invalid argument

Hi! When I use "git clone foo bar" on a Linux host, it works as expected. git clone foo bar Cloning into 'bar'... done. When I use the same command on my Cygwin 64 installation, this used to work, but does not work any more. I can fetch and otherwise use Git in existing repos all right

Hi, Package emacs-x11 depends on package dbus-x11 and should declare this, but apparently does not. Please change package emacs-x11 so that it declares its dependency on paackage dbus-x11. Details: When doing a fresh install of Cygwin 64bit, I selected xlaunch, emacs-x11 and a few other

Xwin 1.17.2.1 exits early

First off: I have been using Cygwin for about 15 years now, thanks to the maintainers!!! For a few months now, the only way for me to get Cygwin/X to run was to start a Cygwin terminal (C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -), then run XWin -multiwindow -clipboard from there, in the
