Re: Problems with updating nearly any package meant for Cygwin or using packages such as libtool
If only compiling and installing Hydra in real life was so easy, I wouldn't be writing about things that don't work. First things first, though... Let me tell you, from begining to end, what I have got through first to end up with having problems using and/or updating libtool as said in the very title.

I found GLIBC version 2.14.1, but when I ran ./configure I was presented with the following message: You must configure in a separate build directory. Sorry but it seems like you're seriously confused about what Cygwin is and how to use it. The Cygwin web page tries to make it clear that the way to install and update Cygwin is via the setup.exe program. You don't use rpm. You install packages via setup.exe. This is similar in concept to a Linux environment. Ubunutu has .deb packages, Fedora has .rpms. We have our much cruder .tar.bz2 files. All are meant to be installed via their respective package managers. Glibc will not work on Cygwin. That is not normally an issue since the Cygwin DLL is supposed to provide much of the glibc functionality. It's the whole reason for the Cygwin project in fact. I've never heard of a package which required you to build glibc. It is very unlikely that you need it. What you likely do need are things like gcc, binutils, make, and random other libraries, all of which can be installed via setup.exe. Once you've installed those, you should be able to run configure/make and it is possible that things will build correctly. 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

You were right, I indeed tried to install compat-libstdc++ using an RPM file. I am still learning Cygwin, so I wasn't sure whether it supports them or not (and the RPM's were the first to pop when searching for any sources). It's not an issue of whether Cygwin supports RPMs. It's an issue of trying to install a Linux executable on Cygwin. It doesn't matter whether it's packaged in an RPM, it's still a Linux binary, not a Cygwin binary. It seems, however, that now I have faced a problem with GLIBC, which is required to update GCC, that I won't be able to deal with (and I haven't updated libstdc++ due to this yet)... From the Cygwin FAQ (which I strongly recommend reading): Where is glibc? Cygwin does not provide glibc. It uses newlib instead, which provides much (but not all) of the same functionality. Porting glibc to Cygwin would be difficult. THC-Hydra claims that it builds fine on Cygwin. Does it not? As thc was stated to use mingw for Windows support, it would seem that it should work with the mingw cross compilers, although uwin was recommended. If you want native cygwin, or even if the purpose is only to gain a more recent version of g++ cross compiler (without all the language support of the cross compilers on the cygwin install menu) it seems you should consider whether the gain is worth the effort, when your original question was how to get a gfortran for Windows. -- Tim Prince -- 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
