Dear Cygwin Team,
Cygwin setup allows downloading sources of libraries, but the resulting sources
are not immediately useful for debugging. One gets a compressed tar archive,
some patches and the cygport file. I know that I can expand sources and apply
patches with
cyport <package.cygport> prep
which gives me what I need for debugging, just not in the right place. E.g.
some MinGW runtime file is searched by gdb (without giving any directory
commands) at
/usr/src/debug/mingw64-x86_64-runtime-6.0.0-1/crt/ucrtexe.c
But after above procedure it is in:
/usr/src/mingw64-x86_64-runtime-6.0.0-1.src/mingw64-x86_64-runtime-6.0.0-1.noarch/src/mingw-w64/mingw-w64-crt/crt/ucrtexe.c
Now of cause I can make a script and copy everything I need where it belongs.
But as far as I know
cyport <package.cygport> all
would put the sources in the /usr/src/debug folder. But I don't want to
recompile everything, I just want to put the sources where gdb can find them.
Is there some way to tell cyport to do this? If not this would be a great
additional feature for cygport (which is a very convenient tool).
cypgort is a tool for making packages.
It's already been used to make a package containing what you want:
mingw64-x86_64-runtime-debuginfo.
Is there some reason why you can't just install that?
