Is there missing some packages of cygwin?
Thanks for your help
where are you running that command from? Most likely, you won't find
a configure file in home, unless you've deliverately put one there.
what are you trying to configure?
I have typed "./configure" under /usr/src
I try to install a program but I don't have any experience on
compiling a program. :(
The readme of the program said :
Build
-----
Goto the "src" directory and run "./configure". When this finishs
successfully, run "make".
But when I typed "./configure" ,
"bash: ./configure: No such file or directory"
well, I'm guessing you just got the tarball (the tar.gz file) and
extracted its contents somewhere (say, /tmp/foo). I bet that you'll see
a src directory under /tmp/foo and that the "src" directory the readme
is referring to is precisely that one, and not /usr/src. Try running
./configure from /tmp/foo/src and see what happens.

FWIW, Mark's suggestion of using /usr/src/foo is better than /tmp/foo
