That is my only online shared storage available, as my cableco ISP decided there was little customer demand for any, like they decided there was little customer demand for Usenet News feeds, and may yet decide there is little demand for their email services! > Looking at the logs in your issue report… please cut all the extra > nonsense from your PATH when building Cygwin packages.

What's set up in my profile has been added to since SunOS, Solaris, AIX, etc. days across many systems including corps' Windows systems running (DJGPP then) Cygwin, with customizations and variations by SHELL, TYPE, and HOST, running integrated, interoperable tool sets, across VMs, local, and remote systems at times. It runs Cygwin services and I work under X with PCmanFM, etc. If PATH ever becomes a problem, I save it and shorten it. I run a number of customizations that trips up poorly written code that makes unjustified assumptions. A lot of what you see is from a log sanitizing script I keep adding to: builds are actually under Cygwin /home/$USER/src/cygwin/$PKG/ or /home/$USER/src/$PKG/ for packages from other sources. Is there a good and easy way to run multiple term windows from separate instances while sharing the infrastructure to consolidate maintenance? The Cygwin Setup program has an annoying habit of breaking or deleting certain high level symlinks and converting them into directories! ;^> Ideally I should run 4 extra instances to separate package builds and newlib-winsup builds on both arches. -- Take care.
