I'm maintaining openssl primarily since it's required for openssh. If there's anything which isn't fixed upstream, it won't be fixed for Cygwin. The Cygwin 1.0.0a-1 package is from the vanilla sources. The 0.9.8 runtime libs will only be kept in place until all packages using it have been converted to 1.0.0. I have no incentive to keep old runtime libs indefinitely. Then please hold your horses. Do it wrong and the upgrade breaks OpenSSL on lots of installations. And: if the upgrade isn't done properly, bug reports about this will often be misfiled with the application programmers as regressions. http://www.fetchmail.info/fetchmail-FAQ.html#R14 and http://www.fetchmail.info/ bear testimonies of such misfilings :) Here's the short scoop: - OpenSSL 1.0.0 uses a different hash for /usr/ssl/certs than 0.9.8 did, so after the default ssl version is upgraded to 1.0.0, c_rehash needs to be run on that directory. Openssl does not come with any certificate and there's no certificate package in Cygwin either. AFAICS it would be sufficient to move to another ssl directory like, say, /usr/share/ssl instead of /usr/ssl. The user can copy and rehash any certificates manually, or install root certificates from scratch for 1.0.0. I see you are taking this upgrade far too lightly. [...] Not shipping certs by default is no excuse for stomping over and breaking user setups. Moving the directory won't break anything. The old dir isn't removed or something. If you change the ssldir to /usr/share, the postinstall script should move the contents from /usr/ssl to /usr/share/ssl. At least users should be told there is manual intervention (move certs, rehash) required BEFORE they can proceed to installation. If we move the dir, I will certainly mention this in the announcement. This was my last unsolicited warning on this matter. You have been warned. Would you like to take over openssl maintainership?

doc: use xmlto pdf
As reported recently on the list[1], openjade cannot handle the ISO
encodings shipped with docbook-xml45. While I need to look into a fix,
in this case there is a simple workaround. Since we already use xmlto
to build the HTML, we can also use it to build the PDFs.
Note that this does require the appropriate backend to be installed. On
Linux, xmlto has used PassiveTeX as a DVI/PDF/PS backend since at least
0.0.18; later versions also support dblatex and fop. On Cygwin, I just
adopted xmlto[2] and updated it to use dblatex as the DVI/PDF/PS
backend, as that is the only backend currently in the distro. (fop is
in Ports but requires its GNU Classpath environment plus a bunch of Java
libraries, and neither passivetex nor its dependency xmltex are
currently available.)
Patch attached; please test.

The reason that I changed that to docbook2pdf at one point was that
creating a PDF from the docs never worked for me before.
And with your patch it also doesn't work for me on two different Linux
systems with different xmlto versions (0.0.18 and 0.0.23). Here's what
happens on Fedora 13, the result is practically the same on the older
system. Maybe you know a solution?
I was able to duplicate this on a linux VM; it appears to be a problem
with the passivetex backend. If I force the dblatex backend, then it
works, but requires xmlto = 0.0.21[1]. Could you try the attached
patch instead?

[ANNOUNCEMENT] CALL FOR TESTING: Cygwin 1.7.6 due soon
A lot of changes and fixes have been made in Cygwin since 1.7.5 has been released, so we're looking forward to release Cygwin 1.7.6 soon. Please test the latest developer snapshots at http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ which should have Release Candidate quality. Please report bugs to the cygwin at cygwin dot com mailing list. Please follow the guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html Be aware that we're mainly focusing on regressions from 1.7.5. What's new: - Add new mount options dos and ihash to allow overriding Cygwin default behaviour on broken filesystems not recognized by Cygwin. - A new mechanism is used to propagate pty handles safely to other processes, which does not require to use Cygserver. - Pass on coresize settings made with setrlimit(2). This allows shells to disable creating stackdump files in child processes via `ulimit -c 0' in bash or `limit coredumpsize 0' in tcsh. - Locale categories contain all localization strings additionally as wide-char strings. locale(1) prints these values just as on Linux. nl_langinfo(3) allows to fetch them. Fixes: - Fix problem where pseudo-relocs were getting applied twice, resulting in a crash. - Fix a crash when accessing /proc/registry* - Avoid that connect on a not yet established AF_LOCAL/AF_UNIX socket misinterprets the socket file as non-socket. - Fix stdin/out/err handle permissions when called from a non-Cygwin process. - Fix codeset problem in internal handling of process name. - Fix abbreviated month names for japanese and korean locale. - Fix calls to gettimeofday after call to settimeofday. - Fix REG_MULTI_SZ handling in /proc/registry* - Honor cygwin username even if it only differs by case from Windows username. - Fix potential memory leak when accessing // or //server directories. - Fix using a wrong handle when cehcking for files inaccessible to current user. - Fix erroneous handling of devices in path checking. - Fix potential crash in exec(2) if parent uses file locking. Other changes: - Change the way a process is made process group leader in case we're started from a non-Cygwin process. This isn't foolproof and may need more work. - Workaround BLODA problem in rename(2) which otherwise results in annoying errors. - Improve error output in strace. - Add more workarounds for broken filesystems which either don't grok reopening a file by handle (NWFS) or which are not capable of handling filenames with leading spaces or trailing dots or spaces (NWFS, Netapp). - Don't try to evaluate reparse points (junctions) on remote filesystems as symlinks. - Improve performance of stat and a few other functions. ls(1) should be up to 30% faster on some drives.

Re: ping Operation not permitted on Windows 7
From: David Arnstein arnst...@pobox.com To: cygwin@cygwin.com Date: Fri, 25 Jun 2010 03:07:54 -0400 Subject: ping Operation not permitted on Windows 7 Using Windows 7 Professional, cygwin, mintty,and bash. All are up to date. I am getting this: $ type ping ping is hashed (/usr/bin/ping) $ ping www.microsoft.com ping: socket: Operation not permitted If I launch mintty Run as administrator from Windows, then no such problem occurs. I have tried re-installing the ping package via cygwin setup.exe. No improvement. Output from cygcheck -s -v -r attached. Any suggestions? What we did was to simply delete the cygwin ping and fall back to the windows ping. Works fine. Ping uses raw sockets which is something that is probably understandable that Windows 7 blocks.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: coreutils-8.5-2
An updated package, coreutils-8.5-2 release has been uploaded and will soon reach a mirror near you, replacing 8.5-1 and leaving coreutils 8.4-2 as previous. NEWS: = This is a minor patch release, which optimizes a code path in ls(1) to take less time determining if a file has ACLs. If you encounter a regression, please report it here rather than upstream. See also the upstream documentation in /usr/share/doc/coreutils/. Help in porting the stdbuf utility to cygwin would be appreciated. DESCRIPTION: GNU coreutils provides a collection of commonly used utilities essential to a standard POSIX environment. It comprises the former textutils, sh-utils, and fileutils packages. The following executables are included: [ arch base64 basename cat chcon chgrp chmod chown chroot cksum comm cp csplit cut date dd df dir dircolors dirname du echo env expand expr factor false fmt fold gkill groups head hostid hostname id install join link ln logname ls md5sum mkdir mkfifo mknod mktemp mv nice nl nohup nproc od paste pathchk pinky pr printenv printf ptx pwd readlink rm rmdir runcon seq sha1sum sha224sum sha256sum sha384sum sha512sum shred shuf sleep sort split stat stty su sum sync tac tail tee test timeout touch tr true truncate tsort tty uname unexpand uniq unlink users vdir wc who whoami yes UPDATE: === To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.

1.7.5: cygwin blocks UAC dialog
Hi, I am running Cygwin 1.7.5 on Windows 7 (64-bit): I4846-vm:intgpune [2] uname -a CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 I4846-vm 1.7.5(0.225/5/3) 2010-04-12 19:07 i686 Cygwin If I run an exe from a cygwin tcsh shell the UAC dialog is being blocked. I get a Permission denied. error. Here is the manifest file for the exe: ?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes'? assembly xmlns='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1' manifestVersion='1.0' trustInfo xmlns=urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3 security requestedPrivileges requestedExecutionLevel level=requireAdministrator/ /requestedPrivileges /security /trustInfo /assembly This is breaking some of my scripts which call an executable and need the UAC dialog to be popped up. In a related issue - I also find that Cygwin simply blocks all error message popups e.g. for missing DLLs from executables. This makes it hard to debug runtime issues. Is this a bug with Cygwin? Can it be fixed? Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, it's understood that you have a problem with those two mirrors. sourceware.org sees them just fine and has verified that they are up-to-date.

And, I can see both mirrors fine from Massachusetts, USA too, FWIW. cgf -- 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

In a related issue - I also find that Cygwin simply blocks all error message popups e.g. for missing DLLs from executables. This makes it hard to debug runtime issues. Is this a bug with Cygwin? Can it be fixed? It's not a bug and it can't be fixed. You can't do this from the command line. Child processes are forked and exec'd using the Win32 CreateProcess or CreateProcessAsUser calls. None of the CreateProcess* calls has any provisions to interact with UAC. For the same reason you have to start the entire console session elevated to run the shell and subsequent applications elevated. What you could try to do is to start the application via a shim which calls ShellExecuteEx with the runas verb as described here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb756922.aspx Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat -- 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: findutils-4.5.9-1
A new release of findutils, 4.5.8-1, is available, leaving 4.5.5-1 as
previous.
NEWS:
=
This is a new upstream release. Upstream news is attached. See also
/usr/share/doc/findutils/.
DESCRIPTION:
The findutils package contains programs which will help you locate files
on your system. The find utility searches through a hierarchy of
directories looking for files which match a certain set of criteria
(such as a filename pattern). The xargs utility builds and executes
command lines from standard input arguments (usually lists of file names
generated by the find command). The locate utility scans a database of
filenames and displays matches. The updatedb utility builds the
database for locate.
UPDATE:
===
To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your
system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up
'findutils' from the 'Base' category (it should already be selected).
DOWNLOAD:
=
Note that downloads from sourceware.org (aka cygwin.com) aren't allowed
due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a
mirror which has this update, please choose the one nearest to you:
http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html
QUESTIONS:
==
If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.

* Major changes in release 4.5.9, 2010-04-29
** Bug Fixes
#29593: Make import-gnulib.sh work under a POSIX shell.
#29511: fails to build on kfreebsd-*
#27563: -L breaks -execdir
#19593: -execdir {} + has suboptimal performance (see below)
** Translations
Updated translations: Chinese (simplified).
** Performance changes
The find program will once again build argument lists longer than 1
with -execdir ...+. The upper limit of 1 argument for execdir was
introduced as a workaround in findutils-4.3.4. The limit is now
removed, but find still does not issue the maximum possible number of
arguments, since an exec will occur each time find encounters a
subdirectory (if at least one argument is pending).
** Functional enhancements to xargs
You can now increase the parallelism of xargs in mid-run by sending
it SIGUSR1, and decrease the parallelism with SIGUSR2.

Re: CTRL-Space issue in Emacs under X on Windows XP machine.
Greetings, Steven Collins! I'm a long time user of Emacs and expect the CTRL-Space key combination to run the set-mark-command. On most machines I use this is the case, but on one Windows XP machine running Emacs under X that I use at work the key combination doesn't work. On this machine Emacs behaves as is I've not pressed any keys at all. I've checked the key bindings for the set-mark-command and CTRL-Space is listed (see attachments). The CTRL-@ combination does work on this machine, but it is not the one I'm used to using for this purpose. Does anyone have any ideas what else to check? System hooks for the same shortcut. Easiest is to create a new user, login under it and try there.

Cygport improvements
Hello,
I am planning to bring mingw-w64 to cygwin. Here are some nits I found
when working with it.
* It sets CC=gcc
While not a major issue, it does present some issues when cross
compiling the mingw-w64 CRT.
* Implicitly setting --prefix=/usr
While I understand this is suitable for native builds, perhaps adding
some cross compile logic to disable this?
* Libtool logic too smart
This is partly a GCC issue too, since it insists installing dlls to
PREFIX/bin. However, manually moving around the dlls and fixing up the
.la paths after install causes cygport to fail with [ ../../..: Unary
operator expected., ../../.. not installed of sorts error around
src_postinst.cygpart:590.
Packaging GCC presents some challenge, there is a packaging hack in the
src_install part. I will try to fix that in GCC.

Followup re: ssh error
Hello,
I just joined the list because I am having the same or similar problems that
Andrew DeFaria reported on 6/2:
http://www.mail-archive.com/cygwin@cygwin.com/msg109042.html
I've read some other posts in the archive that suggest this might be a 1.7.x
specific issue, but I also found the following post from 2008, with cygwin
1.5.25:
http://www.mail-archive.com/cygwin@cygwin.com/msg89149.html
In my case, I've been able to work around this issue by running sshd as
LocalSystem and storing the user password in the LSA private registry area
('option 3' from
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#ntsec-setuid-overview). I was never
able to get PKI working for all use cases using an nt service running as a
privileged user (local or domain). See below.
Some background of what I've tried:
After running ssh-host-config (letting it create a privileged user to run
sshd), making a /etc/passwd entry for a domain user and copying public keys
into its authorized_keys file, I was able to log in using public key auth, but
ONLY if I used ssh for an interactive login. If I tried to ssh command or scp
instead, I always got some form of the following error:
4 [main] sshd 4404 C:\cygwin\usr\sbin\sshd.exe: *** fatal error - could not
load user32, Win32 error 1114
This happened with any non-interactive login from Linux - 2003, Linux -
2003R2, Linux - 2000, 2003 - 2003R2 and 2000 - 2003R2. All the windows hosts
are 32bit and are joined to a single domain. I believe this is the same problem
Andrew reported with his 'seacase' machine in his post on 6/2.
I tried making my user an administrator on the machine, using a local user to
log in instead of a domain user, using a domain cyg_server privilege account
instead of a local one, etc. based on what I've seen suggested in the archives.
In all cases, I get the above error when using pki for ssh command or scp.
HOWEVER, when I started a cygwin shell as the cyg_server user and ran sshd in
the foreground from the shell, I was able to ssh, ssh command and scp using
pki without error, using both the domain and the local cyg_server accounts. So
at least in my case with my testing I was only seeing the above error when
running sshd as a service using these accounts.
As mentioned at the top of my mail, at this point I think I am going to run
sshd as LocalSystem and use cygserver/stored passwords for this project.
Questions:
1. Is there any reason why sshd run as a service via cygrunsrv as a privileged
user would behave any differently than sshd run in a shell as that same user?
2. Based on the setuid overview it looks like running sshd as LocalSystem with
cygserver and stored passwords should be identical to running sshd as a
privileged domain account for the purposes of both PKI and privilege
separation. Is this correct?
3. In my case, the ssh users are all being used for automated processes and do
not have high privileges on the domain. Are there any big problems with using
cygserver and stored passwords vs. using a privileged domain account in this
situation? Stored passwords seem like a much safer option. Am I being naive
here?
Thanks,
-Will

Re: False alarm about exception C0000005
Hi all I saw this thread when searching for a similar error I'm getting. Mine is not with large binaries, but with lots of memory allocations (I'm doing some processing on a large IC netlist). When my program reaches around 800 MB of memory or so it will crash. I tried to use GDB but it just gave me code C005 and nothing to locate the problem. I tried to catch a failed memory allocation using a std::bad_alloc exception but it doesn't seem to get thrown. I'm using cygwin 1007.5.0 on Vista 32-bit Enterprise... Any ideas about this? Thanks M Magnus Reftel wrote: On 26 May 2010 05:17, Dave Korn dave.korn.cyg...@gmail.com wrote: On 25/05/2010 12:47, Magnus Reftel wrote: Hi all, I discovered that the problem does not only affect Cygwin. It was just that I did not have any large binaries outside cygwin. Large executables built using VS Express also crash with the same exception. I guess the IT department installed some broken crap on our machines again. Sorry for the confusion! I had just about reached the same conclusion. The limit to an executable size on my machine was somewhere between 542048077 and 542048589 bytes, and the only failure mode I observed was a proper error message from bash: $ ./big.exe bash: ./big.exe: Cannot allocate memory So, I reckon you probably have some interfering BLODA, maybe a DLL that is injected into all processes and tries to allocate some memory at startup or something like that and doesn't handle a failure well. That seems to be correct. In the failing case (when compiled with VS), the VS debugger lists ntdll.dll and kernel32.dll being loaded before the crash, and when the executable does not crash, sysfer.dll and msvcr100d.dll are also loaded. sysfer is a Symantec DLL. Should have guessed it... Anyway, thanks for looking at this and sorry to have wasted your time!

CALL FOR TESTING: Cygwin 1.7.6 due soon
A lot of changes and fixes have been made in Cygwin since 1.7.5 has been released, so we're looking forward to release Cygwin 1.7.6 soon. Please test the latest developer snapshots at http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ which should have Release Candidate quality. Please report bugs to the cygwin at cygwin dot com mailing list. Please follow the guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html Be aware that we're mainly focusing on regressions from 1.7.5. What's new: - Add new mount options dos and ihash to allow overriding Cygwin default behaviour on broken filesystems not recognized by Cygwin. - A new mechanism is used to propagate pty handles safely to other processes, which does not require to use Cygserver. - Pass on coresize settings made with setrlimit(2). This allows shells to disable creating stackdump files in child processes via `ulimit -c 0' in bash or `limit coredumpsize 0' in tcsh. - Locale categories contain all localization strings additionally as wide-char strings. locale(1) prints these values just as on Linux. nl_langinfo(3) allows to fetch them. Fixes: - Fix problem where pseudo-relocs were getting applied twice, resulting in a crash. - Fix a crash when accessing /proc/registry* - Avoid that connect on a not yet established AF_LOCAL/AF_UNIX socket misinterprets the socket file as non-socket. - Fix stdin/out/err handle permissions when called from a non-Cygwin process. - Fix codeset problem in internal handling of process name. - Fix abbreviated month names for japanese and korean locale. - Fix calls to gettimeofday after call to settimeofday. - Fix REG_MULTI_SZ handling in /proc/registry* - Honor cygwin username even if it only differs by case from Windows username. - Fix potential memory leak when accessing // or //server directories. - Fix using a wrong handle when cehcking for files inaccessible to current user. - Fix erroneous handling of devices in path checking. - Fix potential crash in exec(2) if parent uses file locking. Other changes: - Change the way a process is made process group leader in case we're started from a non-Cygwin process. This isn't foolproof and may need more work. - Workaround BLODA problem in rename(2) which otherwise results in annoying errors. - Improve error output in strace. - Add more workarounds for broken filesystems which either don't grok reopening a file by handle (NWFS) or which are not capable of handling filenames with leading spaces or trailing dots or spaces (NWFS, Netapp). - Don't try to evaluate reparse points (junctions) on remote filesystems as symlinks. - Improve performance of stat and a few other functions. ls(1) should be up to 30% faster on some drives.

Updated: findutils-4.5.9-1
A new release of findutils, 4.5.8-1, is available, leaving 4.5.5-1 as
previous.
NEWS:
=
This is a new upstream release. Upstream news is attached. See also
/usr/share/doc/findutils/.
DESCRIPTION:
The findutils package contains programs which will help you locate files
on your system. The find utility searches through a hierarchy of
directories looking for files which match a certain set of criteria
(such as a filename pattern). The xargs utility builds and executes
command lines from standard input arguments (usually lists of file names
generated by the find command). The locate utility scans a database of
filenames and displays matches. The updatedb utility builds the
database for locate.
UPDATE:
===
To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your
system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up
'findutils' from the 'Base' category (it should already be selected).
DOWNLOAD:
=
Note that downloads from sourceware.org (aka cygwin.com) aren't allowed
due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a
mirror which has this update, please choose the one nearest to you:
http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html
QUESTIONS:
==
If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.

* Major changes in release 4.5.9, 2010-04-29
** Bug Fixes
#29593: Make import-gnulib.sh work under a POSIX shell.
#29511: fails to build on kfreebsd-*
#27563: -L breaks -execdir
#19593: -execdir {} + has suboptimal performance (see below)
** Translations
Updated translations: Chinese (simplified).
** Performance changes
The find program will once again build argument lists longer than 1
with -execdir ...+. The upper limit of 1 argument for execdir was
introduced as a workaround in findutils-4.3.4. The limit is now
removed, but find still does not issue the maximum possible number of
arguments, since an exec will occur each time find encounters a
subdirectory (if at least one argument is pending).
** Functional enhancements to xargs
You can now increase the parallelism of xargs in mid-run by sending
it SIGUSR1, and decrease the parallelism with SIGUSR2.
