[[ compiled using mingw-gcc-4.5.2 ]] !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!! WARNING !!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF you are attempting to update an existing cygwin installation, which has the gcc-mingw 'add-on' packages installed (*), then you MUST upgrade the gcc-mingw packages to version 20050522-3 or newer, before installing this upgrade. Do NOT attempt to upgrade BOTH gcc-mingw and this package during the same setup.exe event. The reason for this restriction is fairly complex, and is detailed here: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2011-04/msg00015.html If you are reading this announcement AFTER having messed up your cygwin installation, because you didn't follow these instructions or didn't know about them, then see the section in this message http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2011-04/msg00015.html that begins with "HELP!!!" and follow the suggestions there to "fix" it. (*) gcc-mingw packages are "add-ons" to the gcc-3 compiler suite, and provide the necessary files for the -mno-cygwin mode of that compiler. ************** *** NOTE 1 *** ************** If you have installed the "missing" mingw cross compiler packages from http://cygutils.fruitbat.org/ITP/mingw-gcc/ then you need take no special action. This package will simply upgrade the cygutils.fruitbat.org one. ************** *** NOTE 2 *** ************** After upgrading all of the various mingw-packages (that is, mingw-{runtime,zlib,bzip2,xz,gpg-error,gcrypt} etc.), the following directories may be empty: /usr/include/mingw /usr/lib/mingw This is expected. Those 'gcc-3 -mno-cygwin' users who wish to continue rather than switching to the new MinGW cross compiler, may find it necessary to add -I/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include when compiling and -L/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib when linking. However, another workaround for gcc-3 users is to remove the now empty /usr/{include,lib}/mingw directories and replace them with symbolic links: rmdir /usr/include/mingw ln -fs /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include /usr/include/mingw rmdir /usr/lib/mingw ln -fs /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib /usr/lib/mingw CHANGES since 1.0.5-10 ======================== o Updated to upstream version 1.0.6 o Recompiled by, and repackaged for use with, the i686-pc-mingw32 cross compiler. o Changed the name of the DLL from mgwbz2-1.dll to libbz2-2.dll, for compatibility with mingw.org distribution. o Adopt mingw.org changes: - export symbols from dll using cdecl calling convention instead of WINAPI (stdcall) - bump DLL number (and dll package name) to '2' - Import autoconf-based build system from mingw.org - Add new --show-progress option -- Charles Wilson volunteer mingw-bzip2 maintainer for cygwin ==================================================================== 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. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
