Re: Warning message about not found stats package on R-4.2.1-1

[Marco Atzeri]

On 09.07.2022 13:12, Xavier Delaruelle wrote:

Hello All,

I am using Cygwin through GitHub actions to test the software I maintain
(Environment Modules) on this system.

I would like to report that after the update to the new version of the R
package (4.2.1-1), a warning message appears about the "stats" package of R
which seem missing:

During startup - Warning message:
package 'stats' in options("defaultPackages") was not found

By comparing the hint file of this new package with the previous version
(4.1.2-1), we can observe that the liblapack0 dependency has been removed.

By manually installing the liblapack0 package, the warning message
described above disappear. So it seems that the "stats" module of R
requires this liblapack0 cygwin package to load properly.

Regards,
Xavier



thanks Xavier
for the info.

It is caused by a glitch in my build system, I had a spurious 
cyglapack0.dll in the wrong place that was not recognized for R depency



I will update R package dependency

Regards
Marco

It would be ideal if this auto-reply didn't include the Cygwin
mailing list; there is no need for the mailing list to read this.
Scratch that; it would be ideal if neither the original question
nor the auto-reply were re-mailed.



What if Cygwin is up to date and you see that message?



Right.
In that case, the message from newer Cygwin will not be accompanied
by a recommendation to post to the mailing list. Instead it points
to some online resources about the problem.


winsup/cygwin/path.cc:
Cygwin WARNING:
  Couldn't compute FAST_CWD pointer.  This typically occurs if you're using
  an older Cygwin version on a newer Windows.  Please update to the latest
  available Cygwin version from https://cygwin.com/.  If the problem persists
  please see https://cygwin.com/problems.html


Those resources could loudly warn the user that mailing list messages
containing references to the FAST_CWD will receive a robot reply
and not get posted (for he reason that old releases of Cygwin
encouraged users to post reports of it, which keeps happening).


Newer Windows releases are likely to eventually re-trigger the problem.
The reporter may not be a Cygwin developer who could submit patches, or 
sufficiently bothered, or knowledgeable enough, to find the site, follow the 
problem reporting guidelines, and generate or attach a cygcheck log.
In either case of old or new messages, if users need more help understanding the 
messages, they should still be able to follow up to the mailing list.


Please feel free to compose a suitable update to the above FAQ entry and path.cc 
messages, and submit patches, suggesting the changes as preconditions required 
to enable the milter to suppress the post and reply. SHTDI

It is a compatibility issue due to a speedup hack that could recur in newer 
Windows versions.

Re: Warning: Cannot convert string "xlogo32" to type Pixmap

[Jon Turney]

On 28/12/2019 22:05, Keith Thompson wrote:

The xlogo application produces this warning message:

 Warning: Cannot convert string "xlogo32" to type Pixmap

This is because /etc/X11/app-defaults/XLogo specifies

 XLogo*iconPixmap:xlogo32
 XLogo*iconMask:  xlogo32

which causes xlogo to look for

 /usr/include/X11/bitmaps/xlogo32

which doesn't exist -- unless you install the separate "xbitmaps"
package.  Installing xbitmaps makes the warning go away.

 $ cygcheck -f /usr/bin/xlogo.exe /usr/include/X11/bitmaps/xlogo32
 xbitmaps-1.1.2-1
 xlogo-1.0.5-1

xlogo is the only application (at least of the ones I have on my
system) that specifies an iconPixmap in its app-defaults file.

Suggested fix: Add a dependency so installing xlogo automatically
installs xbitmaps.


Thanks for pointing this out.

I have added the dependency suggested.

That is not enough information to help anyone here. What software is
showing this and what is the course you are using it in. The problem
is that the software needs to be updated and recompiled to work with

Hello,

I just received the error message "WARNING: Couldn't compute FAST_CWD

So I'm just here following instructions.

I usually operate git from the terminal in RStudio, and for some reason

So this error message is coming up using RStudio terminal and windows

Thanks

Hi, jumping in mid-stream, which is also dangerous.
One issue: it is possible to have multiple versions of cygwin installed on your 
computer; perhaps checking the path for the module that gives the error might 
help. I have a similar using using Altera FPGA build software that used a 
different version in a different source path. Good luck!

Ignore the ocaml, prefix the names with lib, and for Cygwin add 
*-devel to get the names of the packages to install; if using cygport, 
consider adding the following to DEPEND="...":

libao-devel libgd-devel libgstreamer1.0-devel libmad-devel libogg-devel 
libopus-devel libpcre{,2}-devel libportaudio-devel libportaudiocpp-devel 
libsamplerate-devel libschroedinger1.0-devel libtheora-devel 
libvorbis-devel

install those Cygwin packages, possibly curl, pkg-config, and 
gstreamer1.0-plugins-{base,doc}, and check the ocaml and gstreamer docs 
for additional plugins you may need to install, and edit ocaml PACKAGES
to disable unavailable optional libraries.

You might want to work thru the install alternatives on:
http://liquidsoap.fm/download.html
to see which approach is easiest for you to get something installed and 
running. You may want to start by copying PACKAGES.minimal to PACKAGES 
as recommended and decide what you really need.

HTH and good luck.

Hi Martin,
the software that is packing that VERY OLD version of cygwin is
behind several years.

Ask them to upgrade to a more recent version or install
by your self cygwin from the source:

I can install .fon files without problem here on Win7 (by dropping them into

Window popup on all my systems:
Cannot install gohufont-14.fon
The file '...\gohufont-14.fon' does not appear to be a valid font.


I tried to install the ones from koemaeda, but ran into some problems:
- I can only install one at a time
They seem to have all the same name. You would need the -uni- version 
only anyway but have to decide for one size (11 or 14).



- Whichever I install, I cannot set the correct font size (which would
be 6.5pt for the '11px' one and 8.5pt for the '14px' one)
- Whenever I use another size (smaller than 13 for the 11px one or 17
for the 17px one), the displayed letters are blurry
Of course, because they are pixel fonts. That should be the same with 
the .fon versions. I wonder anyhow why you'd wish to use pixel fonts 
nowadays...



- Sometimes, I cannot see the font inside putty's text font menu
- Sometimes, I cannot see the font inside Windows's Fonts directory

In any case, this can be summed up as "these TTF fonts are broken" and
this is not the place for me to ask for support.
I will continue experimenting and possibly ask koemaeda for support.
Only the -uni- versions should be distributed and the two fonts should 
have distinct names or they cannot be installed both.



Meanwhile, I have three questions:
- What was the package upgrade that caused me to get this warning? In
case I don't find a solution, I'll just downgrade it...

2.2.4
Actually, although there was some trouble with the new warning and it 
has meanwhile been tamed to border cases (2.3.3),
nobody has requested to remove the warning alltogether (and I would 
hesitate to do that only for a broken pixel font).

- Is it possible to set non-whole number as font size?
At the Windows API, the unit is different from pt, so some tricky 
calculations could be possible but not to the granularity of 0.1.

Not supported by mintty.

- Do you think font weights could help me get a correct setting even with these 
TTF fonts?

No, the weight would not affect the height.

Kind regards,
Thomas

Do you think I should try another one? If yes, I can either test all

The first TTF archive listed on http://font.gohu.org/ is not installable 
either.
But the second one (https://github.com/koemaeda/gohufont-ttf) works and 
does not produce the warning.

So please use a modern font format.

Re: Warning "Font has limited support for character ranges" on every new window since yesterday

[LLoyd]

Hello.

I am using the .fon ones (http://font.gohu.org/gohufont-windows-2.0.zip)

I never tried to start mintty manually, I am using the standard
desktop shortcut which starts "C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -i
/Cygwin-Terminal.ico -"

I just tried this:
mintty -o Font=gohufont-14 -
which does produce the warning as you can see in this screenshot:
http://i.imgur.com/igFuQGv.png

I *did* remove my .minttyrc font setting prior to doing that test, so
"mintty -" does not produce any warning and "mintty -o
Font=gohufont-14 -" does produce a warning.

Do you think I should try another one? If yes, I can either test all
the installable ones or only one if you want me to test only one.

Regards,
Alexandre


PS: starting "mintty -o Font=GohuFont" or "mintty -o Font=gohufont"
fails with a "font not found, using a substitute" error

Please find the attached cygcheck report I forgot to include.
I have removed some group names from the output.

Also, here are two typo corrections from my previous e-mail:
- of using the desktop shortcut), I am met with this warning:

I have forgetton to execute setup_x86-64 before gnuplot buliding.
Setup seems to upgrade the cygwin and gcc-5.3.0 (to 5.3.0-3).
After setup, the warning was disappeared.

Here's the problem: When I try to use plot in octave, I get the
following output:



Is it a specific plot command or just a generic

Then it quits octave and returns me back to the terminal.
I am using Cygwin on a Windows 8 system.

I am using octave 3.8.1.
It doesn't seem to be that I'm missing any critical files because I do

the file should be in
etc/fonts/fonts.conf

however fc-list will show you the full list of installed and

and it doesn't seem like anybody else is having this specific problem.
Most other people who received the double warnings seemed to have
additional errors and path configuration errors that provided some
information. Any help is greatly appreciated, and, though I have done
a lot of research already, I hope that this hasn't already been
answered.

Fixed in CVS two days ago.  Other than that, we don't support W8 until
it will be officially released.  Until then, expect broken behaviour.

My compilation continues to spew out these Warning messages and I am
not sure if this caused by the fact that the sqlite libraries are
trying to call what I believe is a
deprecated function (cygwin_conv_to_win32_path). I am running cygwin
1.7.1 and up until this point I did not have issues building from
source php 5.2.9 in cygwin. I am getting these warning messages when I
try to build php 5.3.1 as well. As far as I can tell this sqlite
method call to cygwin_conv_to_win32_path has not changed and I suspect
that if I went back and tried to rebuild php 5.2.9 with my current
Cygwin environment I would get these warning messages too.

Question - is this really an issue that would prevent me building
current or subsequent versions of php?
Question - Is there a potential workaround to this other than
downgrading my Cygwin install?


You should switch-over any use of cygwin_to_win32_path() to
cygwin_conv_path().  This new API is documented in the API
documentation along with other Cygwin-specific APIs.  Take a
look:

  It's being POSIX compliant: the fseeko/ftello functions are denoted CX by

  So I think it makes sense to enable these for cygwin too.  I'm whipping up a
patch for newlib.

  This is most likely a variant of the same problem as with snprintf:

 http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-04/threads.html#00435

  Selecting --std=c99 causes __STRICT_ANSI__ to be defined.  These functions
are not in c99, so the declarations are wrapped in #ifndef __STRICT_ANSI__.
As the GCC manual says (under '-ansi'):

>The macro `__STRICT_ANSI__' is predefined when the `-ansi' option

  If you use --std=c99, that means you want *only* c99 functions, and have
specifically asked to be warned about non-ANSI functions.  I don't understand
why Linux does things differently, it's probably technically wrong but trying
to be helpful, but the fact is that if you write a program strictly according
to the c99 standard, you can't expect there to be a library function called
fseeko and you might in fact expect to be able to use that name for a function
in your own code without any clashes (since the c99 spec doesn't say it is
reserved).

  As a workaround you could use --std=gnu99, which gets you c99 + GCC
extension features but doesn't define __STRICT_ANSI__, or drop it altogether;
what's best depends why you're using the flag in the first place.

  The longterm fix is to mark up the newlib headers, looking for "#ifndef
__STRICT_ANSI__" and deciding where to add "|| __STDC_VERSION__ >= 199901L"

Seems Linux has got it wrong then, because ftello and fseeko are not
standard C99 functions. Use -std=gnu99 to enable GNU extensions.

Sorry, I did not see your previous post "TERM=rxvt-cygwin (X mode)

You prefer to add an entry in termcap rather that altering the start

You got it! I use the one from Cygwin menu and the -tn rxvt-cygwin is
to be blamed. I changed it to rxvt only and it works perfectly.
Before this brand new install, I used shortcuts that I wrote myself
and there was possibly not this -tn thing.

Can we correct the shortcut in the Start Menu/Cygwin so that nobody
has the same problem in the future?

You'd use a DOS path. Cygwin autoconverts (some) environment variables
into cygwin format; IIRC %HOME% -> $HOME is one of them.

Have you customized /etc/X11/app-defaults/Rxvt ?

Also, are you using the shortcuts in /Cygwin/ that were
created automatically, or ones that you created yourself?  The
auto-created one for rxvt-x has this command line:

C:\cygwin-1.7\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/rxvt.exe -display 127.0.0.1:0 -tn
rxvt-cygwin -e /bin/bash --login

The "-tn rxvt-cygwin" command line argument always wins, no matter what
is specified in /etc/X11/app-defaults/Rxvt or ~/.Xdefaults.

I have not defined HOME but I can confirm that rxvt is reading
.Xdefault as I use it to define the window size, colors, font size...
I have tried to add HOME in Windows env. var but it did not change
anything (either with a DOS path or a Cygwin path).

So there is something strange with this TERM thing and rxvt.

As the default termcap already includes an entry for rxvt-cygwin-native
as a convenience for cygwin users, it should probably be updated to also
include an entry for rxvt-cygwin.  The three entries:

rxvt
rxvt-cygwin-native
rxvt-cygwin

differ only in their ACS (line draw) character string, which only works
if you're using an OEM-recoded font...so, using TERM=rxvt is probably
good enough for both variants, for most people.  (I know of only one
OEM-recoded font: "Lucida ConsoleP")

Maybe, but maybe not.  Rxvt looks for the .Xdefault using the following
construction:

getenv("HOME") + "/.Xdefaults"

It does NOT use getpwent() to figure out your home directory from
/etc/passwd.  Therefore, if you start rxvt "fron Windows" (e.g. using a
shortcut), then Rxvt can find ~/.Xdefaults ONLY if you have set %HOME%
using the Windows Environment settings tool.  My guess is that on your
brand new installation, you haven't done this -- so the behavior is
expected.

Its a fresh new install! Nothing about TERM in .bashrc, nor in .bash_profile.

I just have the following in my .Xdefaults:
Rxvt*termName: rxvt
Looks like it is ignored.

So is it a bug?

That's the problem.  /etc/termcap has an entry for rxvt-cygwin-native,
but not for rxvt-cygwin.  What you want in that case is just
TERM=rxvt.

Not sure where the bug is.  Either rxvt is setting TERM wrong, or you

/etc/termcap is missing an alias for the entry.

normally cygwin is not istalled on the root
of a drive

C:\cygwin  /  system  binmode
C:\cygwin/bin  /usr/bin   system  binmode
C:\cygwin/lib  /usr/lib   system  binmode
.  /cygdrive  system  binmode,cygdrive

while on your system
D:  / userbinmode
D:\bin  /usr/bin  userbinmode
D:\lib  /usr/lib  userbinmode

as for windows 
D: is not equal to D:\

is it possible that is confusing cygcheck ?

I was running cygcheck from HOME when I got all the ".. hides .."

Thank you. The two entries for cygwin1.dll that result in the Warning 
message are

d:\bin\cygwin1.dll
and
\bin\cygwin1.dll
being, in fact identical. Since not everybody gets this I deduce that my
mount settings are eccentric. But in fact these are merely

$ mount -m
mount -f -u -b "d:/bin" "/usr/bin"
mount -f -u -b "d:/lib" "/usr/lib"
mount -f -u -b "d:" "/"

and I can't see anything odd. I attach cygcheck output. Any illumination 
would be greatly appreciated.

I get no output at all from that command pipe, as expected.

Time for you to search all your drive(s) for cygwin1.dll with Windows Explorer 
after making sure its idiot, I mean "Advanced", options to "search system 
folders", "search hidden files and directories" and "search subfolders" are all 
turned on, the way Ghod intended them.

That's because this is a new feature that was just merged.  The specific
patch that added it seems to be
.

+AC_ARG_ENABLE(fixed-point,
+[  --enable-fixed-pointenable fixed-point arithmetic extension to
C],

+  AC_MSG_WARN(fixed-point is not supported for this target,
ignored)
+  enable_fixed_point=no
+  ;;
+  esac
+])

It does seem a bit spurious to AC_MSG_WARN on all non-supported targets,
even if the user didn't attempt any --enable-fixed-point, but you can at
least silence it with --disable-fixed-point.

> Should I 'tune' the build adding something in 'configure' ?

Pretty sure this requires hardware support, e.g. on a DSP. Not the kind
of thing they make configure switches for... :)

Wow, I guess I was a bit fat-fingered and half-asleep on that one.

'ssh' uses the information in your '/etc/passwd' file to determine your
home directory.  You can use the '-h' flag to mkpasswd to set this as
you desire, if the default is not what you want.

Apologies -- I did this because it was requested in the past.
Common practice and expectations might have changed since.

Thanks for the tip on setting the ssh login directory.

I use ntbackup (backing up to a file), it preserves the DACL, owner and
posix group. I have a wrapper bash script for ntbackup , so I can call
it from with in an ssh session.

If your moving to a new domain, you can do all sorts of DACL, owner,
and posix group, (recursive) edits with "setacl":

may be of some help (find broken symlinks):
find / -L -type l

 -type c
l  symbolic link; this is never true if the -L option or the
   -follow  option is in effect, unless the symbolic link is
   broken.  If you want to search for symbolic links when -L
   is in effect, use -xtype.

I have been using this snapshot heavily all day without any problems.

As I usually point out -- there is nothing magic about cygwin.  There is
no way that it should be able to do something like reformat your hard
drive unless you were running from a privileged account.  Even then,
you'd have to try pretty hard to make it do something bad to your hard
drive.  I can't imagine how it could do something like what you describe.

Unless someone else corroborates these problems, I don't think it makes
any sense to remove the snapshot.

parrot!" type responses)

RE: Warning: Latest version of Cygwin DLL makes WinCVS (through Cygwin SSH) not work (Intern)

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

For anyone reading this, please see the email archives for the same 
proclamation by others and the recommended solution.  The results will
be more useful than this warning.

As for the side issue of available "downgrades", this has been discussed
before on the list.  It's not worth rehashing here (especially since the 
poster can't make the claim that a "downgrade" wasn't available).  Those
interested in this subject should thoroughly review the email list archives.

Subject: Warning: Latest version of Cygwin DLL makes WinCVS (through Cygwin
SSH) not work (Intern)


Hi!

I upgraded Cygwin yesterday (Cygwin DLL 1.3.13-2?). When I used WinCVS
today through Cygwin OpenSSH I got an error message when updating a file
saying 'OK unknown response'. After downgrading to 1.3.12-4 this error
disappeared.

We had a similar problem with a previous version of Cygwin DLL. Could this
be a reintroduction of that bug?
It could be usefull to be able to downgrade to a version sooner that the
previous one! When we had this problem the last time it was not possible to
downgrade to a version early enough to solve this problem and we had to
wait for the next release.

RE: Warning: Latest version of Cygwin DLL makes WinCVS (through Cygwin SSH) not work (Intern)

[Mike Lerwill]

OK, I give in, I have seen "complaints from others" of this problem but
cannot find what you are calling the recommended solution. The only item I
can find that seems potentially relevant recommends using CYGWIN=binmode but
this makes no difference.

I have (as recommended by cgf) tried the latest snapshot (1.3.14s(0.62/3/2)
20021017 13:52:27) but the problem remains unchanged.

If you have a specific item in mid a pointer to it would be welcome
