Let me try disabling the unit test option. > I'm slightly curious to know if there is something wrong with the X server > binary package I produce, since you always seem to want to build your own? Nothing is wrong with your binaries and I'm grateful to you for maintaining this wonderful thing called Cygwin X server. I just have a few things about it that do not go well with my taste. But I'm not foolish enough to say that the rest of the world should adapt to my taste, so I keep them to myself and end up applying my own patch everytime I build it. I think I've been doing this since Tears For Fears tried to rule the world from your country. It used to be more files, now it's only one file, winwndproc.c. I'm delighted the world is catching up with me. :) -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
