Since the latest upgrade the following python program causes an "Aborted (core dumped)" error:
#!/usr/bin/python import ctypes import zlib a = 1 If the order of imports is reversed (zlib then ctypes) no core dump error occurs. python2.7.exe.stackdump contains nothing of use: Stack trace: Frame Function Args Versions are: uname -srm CYGWIN_NT-6.2 1.7.20(0.266/5/3) i686 python Python 2.7.3 (default, Dec 18 2012, 13:50:09) [GCC 4.5.3] on cygwin ctypes __version__ = '1.1.0' zlib __version__ = '1.0' ZLIB_VERSION = '1.2.7' The dates on the latest cygwin dll files (cygwin1.dll) etc. in /usr/bin are Jun 7 10:11 O/S is Windows v8.0 Setup.exe version is 2.774 Neither ctypes nor zlib is in the site-packages directory so I don't see any user module recompilation being available. I do have sip installed in site-packages but this is not used by the failing program. -- 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
