Actually you can get the libX11.dll if you install the Cygwin/X shared
libraries from the XFree86-lib-compat/XFree86-lib-compat4.3.0-2
pat-4.3.0-2 package. These libraries, like Harold pointed out are based
ont he 4.2.0 (older) shared libraries.

Hi Harold,
I couldn't use setup.exe for downloading your libungif-4.1.0-3, but took it manually instead. It seems to fix this problem.
Thanks,
Tuli

Sorry about that Harold.
I did not fully read your original response.

Hi Harold,
thanks for finding it out.
However, I also noticed two other problems.
1) Emacs and xemacs (as started on Solaris and Linux) have crashing problems
with the new XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-50. With XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-44 this problem
did not exist. The crashing can easily be reproduced just by clicking on the
emacs windows repeatedly for some seconds, maybe moving the mouse a bit
at the same time.
2) The Alt Gr button on my european keyboard does not seem to work at all
with emacs/xemacs. However, it works with xterm. Once again, this problem
didn't occur with XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-44.
Maybe these two problems are also a result of some outdated library?

........
These lines are of interest:
C:\cygwin\bin\cygungif-4.dll
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\libX11.dll
This means that the linungif package was built against the old 4.2.0 X libraries (it hasn't been rebuilt since 2002) and needs to be rebuilt soon since those libraries are going to be pulled with the next release.
I will see what I can do about this.

Lets keep one issue in one email thread. Start another if you want
people to look into those issues.

Okay, I fixed the lubungif package, but I am waiting for the package
maintainer to accept my changes.
In the meantime, you can point Cygwin's setup.exe to the following
address and install libungif-4.1.0-3:

Hi all,
I had problems with a fresh setup (today with all the newest packages with
XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-50 and all). WindowMaker will not start, since it cannot
find libX11.dll. And really, this file does not exist after setup.exe.
>From some older discussion I found that copying cygX11-6.dll
to libX11.dll fixes the problem, and it did. Does this mean that
WindowMaker package is just out of date?
Thanks,
Tuli

I just did a cygcheck on wmaker.exe:

C:\cygwin\bin\cygpng12.dll
C:\cygwin\bin\cygz.dll

=======================================
These lines are of interest:
C:\cygwin\bin\cygungif-4.dll
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\libX11.dll
This means that the linungif package was built against the old 4.2.0 X
libraries (it hasn't been rebuilt since 2002) and needs to be rebuilt
soon since those libraries are going to be pulled with the next release.
I will see what I can do about this.
