Now I remember why I referred all my students to MinGW <g>.
Upon completion of the installation, I got this "Postinstall script error":
Package libpango1.0_0
pango1.0.sh exit code 1
and my Cygwin shell fails to launch, declaring that mintty cannot be found.
The relevant part of the setup.log.full says:
....
2013/02/23 11:24:17 running: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --norc --noprofile
"/etc/postinstall/pango1.0.sh"
/etc/postinstall/pango1.0.sh: line 1: /etc/pango/pango.modules: No
such file or directory
2013/02/23 11:24:17 abnormal exit: exit code=1
....
As it happens, not only is there no "pango.modules" file present, but there is
also no /etc/pango directory to put it in. I searched the entire log
file for any reference to /etc/pango and there was none.
The install was "Default" with the following additions:
Archive:
zip
Database:
libsqlite3-dev
libsqlite3_0
Devel:
<Install all>
Editors:
emacs-<all>
gvim
vim
vim-common
xxd
Graphics:
freeglut
gnuplot
Interpreters:
guile
lua
m4
perl
python
python3
ruby
ruby-tcltk
tcl
tcl-tk
Math:
octave
I will try again with the references to X11 components, which should
get me over the hump, but I'd like to get this resolved, if possible.
Any suggestions?
