Broken Cygwin installer links

2013-08-21 Thread Kyle Altendorf
On the Cygwin/X homepage the links to the Cygwin installer still reference the pre-64-bit-support era installer cygwin.exe rather than either setup-x86.exe or setup-x86_64.exe. Cheers, -kyle (who is not subscribed to this list) -- Unsubscribe info:

I have the same issue, it seams like python is core dumping both on python 2.7 and python 3. I sent a mail about this a couple of days a go with some more details. There is no debug package for python 3.0 so the stacktrace is somewhat limited. /R 2013/8/20 Public Joe
