We don't know what packages you've installed, so can't say if this is a problem with your installation or a more general one. Please read and follow the Cygwin problem reporting guidelines at <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>, particularly the part about attaching the output of "cygcheck -svr" (as an uncompressed text *attachment*). > I install it from the internet and select all the packages needed.

The contents of the libjpeg62 is a single DLL, /usr/bin/cygjpeg-62.dll (which, BTW, is a compatibility DLL -- you should be installing libjpeg6b for a more current one). However, if you select the right packages, libjpeg6b should be selected automatically for you. > I say this becasuse when I try to compile my project this message is > shown: missing header file 'jpeglib.h' > I've search for it and I can't find it anywhere, I thought it should be > at /cygwin/usr/include/ as the other libs are but the libjpeg isn't > there. It's not a lib, it's an include file. But yes, it's supposed to be under /usr/include once you've installed the right packages. > I've tried to reinstall the library from the setup.exe and also using > different mirrors but nothing has changed. Because you're reinstalling the wrong library. Try "cygcheck -l libjpeg62" to see the contents of that package on your system. > The package has been downloaded but the setup process seem t forget to > install it or something. > Should I just untar the downloaded package to the /cygwin/usr/include/ > directory? if that's the correct directory to do that, which I'm not > sure at all. I doubt that setup "forgets" to install any package that was selected by the user. Try searching for the file you need on the Cygwin package search page at <http://cygwin.com/packages/>, and then install that package using setup. > I'm new at cygwin and I don't know muach about unix like systems...
