Problems with XPDF on Cygwin with recent snapshots (newlib ?)

2007-05-23 Thread Angelo Graziosi
Using cygwin-inst-20070523.tar.bz2 there is XPDF that core dumps loading a pdf file. The same happens with a cygwin1.dll 1.5.24-2 rebuilt with CVS newlib dated May 18. Instead using cygwin1.dll 1.5.24-2 rebuilt with CVS newlib dated May 01, XPDF works fine. Cheers, Angelo

Hi, OCaml 3.10 is just released. The Cygwin ocaml package generously contributed by Igor Pechtchanski in 2004, however, is still 3.08.1. Although OCaml can be compiled under Cygwin without any change, surely it will save some time if OCaml package is updated and made available via Cygwin
