I can't remember by reasoning now but I think it was to stop it
attempting to build the Unix and Linux RNG modules. I've just tried
again, starting with:

./configure --enable-static-rnd=egd --disable-dev-random

This still wants to create rndlinux and rndunix and this won't work.
(BFD has a fit.) I diked them out of the make file. You still need to
fix up the assembler calling in mpi/sysdeps.h

Should be fine after that. Oh, and PGP2.6i was no trouble at all.

Hi,

Don't know if in this case outdated info is better
than no information at all. However, I'd tried 
porting gnupg-1.0.0 awhile back. Got at far as the
follg. undefined "WinMain@16" error, and did not 
pursue further due to Werner Koch's warnings that
not having a well-formed way to /dev/rnd on Win32 
makes such a port disingenuous.

>> Just a summary of the results so far..
   (1) The gnupg-1.0.0 port to cygwin-b20.1 needs 
       GCC 2.95-19990728+ from Mumit, 
       cygwin32_ipc-1.03 from 
       http://www.multione.capgemini.fr/tools/pack_ipc
       
       or
       http://dods.jpl.nasa.gov/WinPort/DodsPort.html .
   (2) In cipher/rndunix.c, modify 
       #include<sys/signal.h>
       to <signal.h>. Comment out the sys/ipc.h & 
       sys/shm.h includes.
   (3) ./configure --target=i586-pc-cygwin 
                        --disable-asm
                        --disable-nls 
                        --disable-shared. 
   (4) Define HAVE_STRICMP config.h, & make -d to
       get the "WinMain@16" errmsg below..
       >> In function `main':
       >>
/home/noer/src/b20/comp-tools/devo/winsup/libcmain.cc:38:
undefined reference to `WinMain@16'

Hope this helps,
- varun

Why is this?  Given the ctype error you describe below, it sounds like you
need to use a normal cygwin build.

I'm trying. Haven't got there yet, though. The first thing to note is
that you want to tell it you're on a mingw32 system.Secondly, config.links
gets the calling conventions from assembler wrong.
You should change sysdeps.h to say

#define CSYMBOL(name) _##name

(Actually, that's a hack, there's probably a better way to make it work.)
The next remaining issues I have are:
     undefined reference to `_ctype_'

ctype.h is included, but where should it get _ctype_ from?

     undefined reference to `read_w32_registry_string'

You can get around that by turning off __MINGW32__ for that period, and
it'll do the getenv() thing.

Let me know how it goes. If you can't even get that far, I'm happy to
send you a tarball of what I've done so far.

[Sean Champ]

is there anyone working on porting GnuPG to cygwin?

i haven't tried to compile it yet, but i'm guessing it would hang on some things.

are there any tips on where I should expect some compile-time problems? or is it just a matter of hunt-and-peck until it works?
