From: Harold L Hunt II <huntharo@msu.edu> To: cygxannounce <cygwin-xfree-announce@cygwin.com> Subject: Updated: lesstif-0.93.96-1 [test release] Date: Mon, 18 Oct 2004 08:46:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <41737009.5000401@msu.edu> (raw) WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! --- THIS RELEASE DOES NOT WORK! THIS RELEASE IS FOR DEBUGGING ONLY! The lesstif-0.93.96-1 'test' package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution. Changes: 1) Sync with upstream 0.93.96 release. 2) NOTE: This build is not stable on Cygwin. For example, nedit crashes on startup. The 0.93.96 release will never be marked as stable unless someone else figures out the problem and submits a patch. To get started, grab the source package via setup.exe and look in /usr/src when it is done installing. Good luck and happy coding! By the way, this seems to be a fun error: the stack gets clobbered, the process is terminated immediately, it does not seem that DllMain in cygXm-2.dll is being called at all (could be part of the problem, or could indicate that the problem lies really early in the load process). I once saw an error when trying to debug ddd that said the problem was in ntdll!RtlReallocHeap or some such. Of course, none of this is helpful, other than the scare away the uninitiated. -- Harold Hunt 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. Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "XFree86" and then click on the appropriate field until the above announced version number appears if it is not displayed already. If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after 24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or you can try to find another mirror. Please send questions or comments to the Cygwin/X mailing list at: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com If you want to subscribe go to: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/ I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin/X in general. If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin/X mailing list is the appropriate place.
