It's been a great resource and my thanks go out to all maintainers there and here. What options do I have going forward for packages from that repository that I can confirm do work, but have not (yet) been migrated into the main Cygwin repository? As an example, my use case is Perl-DBD-Sybase from about three weeks ago, which works beautifully but is not in the main repository. Short of moving to a Linux-based platform I'm now not sure how to proceed. Could someone enlighten me, please? Much appreciated.

I have a question for you. You stated: "Short of moving to a Linux=bases platform" I take it you have the "cygwinports" Successfully running in a Windows Environment. Could you please share, how to set-up cygwinports in Windows? I have Cigwin installed on my Win10 testing system at the moment, just have not done anything past the initial installation And the installing of the packages for compiling. Thanks.

Cygwinports is not Cygwin. Cygwin is alive and kicking; cygwinports.org was closed down last week (or so). Please see http://cygwinports.org/ for reasons.

You could try building it yourself: https://github.com/cygwinports-extras/perl-DBD-Sybase You'll need cygport, perl, and libsybdb-devel. If it weren't for that patch, you could also just install it from cpan. -- Yaakov -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread
