I use PyCharm for Python programming and installing packages. PyCharm uses the pip command to install any package. I recently needed to install a package that needs to be build. I learned that I needed to install cygwin in that case.
Here is the deal: I try to install a package that needs to be build and end up with this error message (64 and 32 bit) --- D:\Programme\cygwin64\bin\gcc.exe -mcygwin -mdll -O -Wall -IC:\Users\... gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-mcygwin’ --- D:\Programme\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe -mcygwin -mdll -O -Wall -IC:\Users\... gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-mcygwin’ Please help, Google returns nothing regarding that error! I feel like I am the only person in the world with that error :( -- 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
