Re: The rxvt.1 manpage of the rxvt-2.7.10-4 package

[Jason Pearce]

An easy way of deleting the YODL garbage is to use the VIM editor.
The following VIM script (call it patch.vim) does the job:
Q
%s/^\.YODLTAGSTART\./\.YYODLTAGSTART\./
%s/\.YODLTAGSTART\./\r\.YODLTAGSTART\./g
%s/\.YODLTAGSTART\. roffcmd //
%s/\.YYODLTAGSTART\. roffcmd //
%s/\.YODLTAGEND\.//
%s/\n\.YYODLTAGSTART\..*//
1
/\.TH
1,.-1d
wq
Then call VIM to modify the wrong rxvt.1
$ vim -s patch.vim -- rxvt.1
bye.
Rodrigo Medina
Great!
For other non-vim users (who don't even install it) here is the sed 
script equivilent

s/^\.YODLTAGSTART\./\.YYODLTAGSTART\./
s/\.YODLTAGSTART\./\r\.YODLTAGSTART\./g
s/\.YODLTAGSTART\. roffcmd //
s/\.YYODLTAGSTART\. roffcmd //
s/\.YODLTAGEND\.//
s/\n\.YYODLTAGSTART\..*//
call it patch.sed.
$ cp /usr/man/man1/rxvt.1 /tmp/
$ sed -f patch.sed /tmp/rxvt.1 > /usr/man/man1/rxvt.1

FWIW; If windows knows about your CDR, it should be visible in cygwin too -
to some extent at least.

I think this will get you started;

$ cdrecord -scanbus

It should show a list of all(?) IDE/SCSI drives...
The cdrecord doc/readme/howto (whichever it was) should give some hints.

Might be that reading the cygwin FAQ WRT device handling will help some.
(It was some time ago that I played with this...)

 cp  and  mv  comes out of the same box (same source file) and both seems to
have problems with this. I had a look some time ago but came to no
conclusion, primarily due to limited time to begin with.

 This has been on the list several times before, AFAIK (from reading here)
no-one has made efforts to do anything about it.
IIRC/Long shot/Long time no see: Seems to be some kind of interaction with
(was it?)stat() beeing "hacked" to check for .exe also, as  is
scanned for. (mv using rename for moving?)

Could you please keep answers on the list? This would be useful in two
ways:

1. Your problems and successes would be archived, perhaps helping the

2. The people would know if it worked, and wouldn't waste their time on

Yes, the problem is that stat("foo") will transparently stat("foo.exe"), but 
open("foo") then fails. 'cp' then makes an assumption
about why this might occur, and displays a nonsense error message.

I suppose the answer is to simply patch coreutils to give a better error message in 
this case.

Max.

It's generally a bad idea to mix runtimes.  Furthermore, cygwin1.dll
cannot be dynamically loaded at the moment -- PTC[*].

I have no experience with cygwin, but the problem is that the linker
does not find libglib-2.0.??? (I do not know the exact name of the file
in this case). This file should be in glib/.libs.If it does not exist
(this would be very surprising), go to the glib directory and run make
to create it. Check it and also check the arguments of the ld command.

Unfortunately, it was right before fileutils became part of coreutils.

Perhaps the new coreutils maintainer might take a look?

How to force Setup.exe to behave?

[Lex Ein]

Nine days ago, this was "Using Setup.exe to uninstall -bogus".

Please help me figure out how to get Setup.exe to STOP TRYING TO INSTALL
X.
Setup.exe won't stop trying to snag unnecessary components.
What file(s) to I have to edit manually to make this happen?  
What can I manually delete?
It's a remote system, so I can't uninstall Cygwin without losing control.

Little help?

Setup is only bringing in X because something you have installed
requires it.

It's possible that there is a circular dependency loop within the X
programs themselves, and if so you may (at least Right Now) be out of
luck for your uninstallation needs.

However, the partial view as another poster has suggested is probably
the best way to tackle this. And I'd suggest you compare what you want
installed vs what you have installed with the setup.ini from the mirror
you are using - you should be able to spot the culprit that is dragging
the X packages in.

My WAG is that a package you *want* wants X.

Hi All...
I ran into a circular dependency with X as well. I temporarily installed 
something that wanted it and then later removed the original package. I 
tried a couple of times to remove X and gave up. (It doesn't take that much 
disk to worry about and I'll take care of it on my next clean install.)

Backup failure for Cron.pid

[bella]

Hi,

Install cygwin 1.3.10 in windows 2000 advanced server
SP3. I used Veritas Netbackup for backup system.
Recently, I got error

ERR = failure reading file: D:\cygwin\var\run\cron.pid
(The process cannot access the file because another
process has locked a portion of the file)

I can open cron.pid by notepad.

Is the cron.pid corrupt ? 
What's usage for cron.pid ? If I don't backup
cron.pid, can I resume service after restored ?
Or any suggestion ?

I cannot upgrade the cygwin version as it's in
production environment.

Thanks

You need to figure out the package(s) installed depending on X.

Attached is a list of packages that have the string "XFree" or "xorg"
in their requires: line in setup.ini 
Save the list to a file, say, xlist.txt

Exporting /cygdrive/ Probelm, was Re: How To Export NFS?

Excellent!

I compiled from source and did not have the above file
and was missing some other stuff.  Once I installed
the binaries I was able to export regular directories.
 However, I still can't mount my Windows CD-ROM drive
remotely.  I followed the information in the README
regarding /cygdrive and did the following:

$ mkdir -p /exports/d
$ mount -f -s -b d:/ /exports/d
$ echo "/exports/d (ro,all_squash)" >> /etc/exports

The line redirecting to /etc/exports looked funny, so
I replaced it with:

/exports/d 10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0(ro,all_squash)

When I attempt to mount from a Linux machine I get:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# mount -t nfs
10.0.0.123:/exports/d /mnt/windoze
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on
10.0.0.123:/exports/d, or too many mounted file
systems

I can mount other directories, but not /exports/d
(which is my CD-ROM drive).

Arggg...  Suggestions?
