Hi, I have tried to rebuild ROOT 4.03.02 (a CERN application) with CYGWIN 1.5.13-1 (with the previous 1.5.12-1 all worked fine). When I try to unpack the source root_v4.03.02.source.tar.gz with tar -xzvf root_.... it take long, long time. The CPU is working at 100% and I am constrained to break it with C-Break. After about 1 hour only 25% is unpacked! Normally (with Cygwin 1.5.12-1 and previous versions, it takes only 40-60 seconds!) I have also made a downgrade to 1.5.12-1 to verify and it works fine. To work with 1.5.13-1 I must, first, gunzip the root_v4...tar.gz file and than I can untar it. In this way I can continue to rebuild the application. Using tar -xzvf ... I have noticed that root_v4...tar.gz file contains other *.tar.gz files (3). When the unpacking process starts to unpack the first of these files (in a sort of recursivity) it slows down much. I repeat: the 1.5.12-1 does not give any of these problems! I do not ask help for my application: I want only to point out a possible conflict between CYGWIN 1.5.13-1 and "tar -xzvf file.tar.gz" in which file.tar.gz contains others *.tar.gz files angelo [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
