Deprecating ntea
Hi, I think it's time to remove the CYGWIN=ntea setting from Cygwin. (see http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html) The reason is that it's just a fake. It fakes POSIX permission bits by using the "extended attributes" capability built into NTFS. it also works on FAT by creating a bulky file in the root directory of the partition. Extended attributes were never implemented on FAT32, so "ntea" could never work on FAT32. So, IMO, ntea is not at all necessary. Given that practically all Windows systems nowadays are using NTFS and given that NTFS supports real permissions, not only faked ones, I don't see any need for ntea. I even consider ntea as dangerous, because it pretends a security which doesn't exist. That's what the default ntsec setting is for, utilizing real permission settings. Ok, that's my opinion, which should make it clear that I think ntea is old cruft which should be removed from Cygwin. My questions are thus: Does anybody seriously use ntea? Do you think you can't live without it? Is using ntsec or just switching off ntsec no option for you? Why? Or, to phrase it as I did on the cygwin-developers list: Does anybody have a good argument to keep this cruft against all reason?

Missing dependencies for qt3-devel
Hi, pkg-config file "qt-mt.pc" lists several libraries that are not installed when "qt3-devel-3.3.4-2" is selected. The missing libraries can be found in: XFree86-lib-compat xorg-x11-devel minires-devel It is quite difficult to figure out which packages are required, so I would suggest adding them to the dependencies of qt3-devel.

Yes. Take a look at "mount --help". The first argument is a win32 path -- that is the whole point of mount table entries, to map a win32 path to a POSIX path. And you should not be using /cygdrive like that. Assuming that c:/cygwin is mounted as /, then you probably want something like mount c:/cygwin/rakesh /usr/cygnus Brian -- 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/

Re: /dev/null timing and clock skew problems
It seems the 'Clock Skew' warnings are the only serious ones. They never used to occur on previous Cygwin releases though. I am building LLVM with Cygwin and am getting the warnings but on building GCC I am getting no clock skew or modification time warnings. http://llvm.org CVS and build instructions :- http://www.aarongray.org/LLVM/BuildingLLVMonCygwin.html The clock skew warnings appear after a link or archive. I cannot seem to find a flag for make to display executed commands though. On my 1.4Ghz XP machine Clock Skews could be serious, but on my 1.6Ghz Vista machine they appear not to be. Could someone give me any idea when this will be fixed.

Try replacing spaces ' ' with dots '.' in the paths specified with --prunepaths. In a regexp a dot matches any character.

Is there a reason DebugBreakProcess can't be used from inside gdb if sending a ctrl-c with GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent (CTRL_C_EVENT, pid) doesn't work?

Note that DebugBreakProcess only exists on XP or Windows 2003 server onwards. For WinNT < XP, it should be possible to simulate it with CreateRemoteThread with entry point set to DebugBreak or something similar. The worst case would be that a dll would have to be injected to load a function that does the DebugBreak in the debuggee's address space.

I think if gdb sends a break because it saw a CTRL-C and then gets a break from the sub-process it is safe for gdb to assume that the interrupt was a CTRL-C without needing to check where the break hit.
