Error after updating gettext, missing libunistring5.

Error after updating gettext, missing libunistring5.

[Carlo B.]

Hello,
After Setup.exe updated gettext in my CYGWIN installation, I got this
error when building a software:

C:/cygwin64/bin/msgfmt.exe: error while loading shared libraries:
cygunistring-5.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory

After manually installing libunistring5, the problem disappeared.
Probably, libunistring5 should be added as required dependency when
installing/upgrading gettext.

Sincerely,

Carlo Bramini.

as both arches built without any libunistring dependencies included, and 
deployed as such.

Rebuilding and redeploying release 2 with expected dependencies when available 
and valid.

By the way, on cygwin 32-bit the dependency does not resolve as 
libunistring5 is not available...

I can make it available on 32-bit, if it is still possible. I read that x86 is end-of-life' since Friday.
Is it still worth the effort?

Erwin

Well, I don't know. Current xgettext does not work; it could be 
downgraded, however...
If you're quick, maybe you can make an upload early today...
