Those are also required for find_library. still failing for me after installing "python36-devel". however even if it works, it seems we have an issue. if you need "python36-devel" to use "find_library", then it seems you only need "binutils" if you are installing "python36-devel", not "python36". so the "binutils" dep should be moved from "python36" to "python36-devel". this way it only hurts people installing the development python, not also people wanting to run "print('hello world')" if you have another reason why "python36" should require "binutils" i would be interested to read it - thanks. -- 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
