Install some individual package
I have installed the cygwin before. Now I want to install some individual package such as emacs22 or update some packages.

Using PyGTK on Cygwin
Hi everyone.
I'm a very newbie with Python: while I was looking for a way to add a
simple GUI to a bash script, I found PyGTK and it looked perfect for my aim.
So, I checked that Python and PyGTK were installed and updated through
Cygwin setup, and everything was fine.
I wrote this simple "hello world" script and tried to run:
---
import gtk
#Global variable 'count' stores the number of button clicks
count = 0
def button_pressed_cb(button):
global count
count += 1
print "Hello again - the button was pressed: ", count, " time(s)."
window = gtk.Window()
window.set_title("Hello World!")
button = gtk.Button("Press me")
button.connect("clicked", button_pressed_cb)
window.add(button)
window.connect("delete-event", gtk.main_quit)
window.show_all()
gtk.main()
---
It stops on the first line:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "prova.py", line 1, in
import gtk
ImportError: No module named gtk
Can please anyone help me?
Thank you,
Ignazio

It seems that Pygtk is not in the python path (probably look in system.path) but since it is very surely not a cygwin issue you should ask in the python/pygtk mailing lists.

The problem seems to be with Python version switch from 2.4 to 2.5, or at least I think so: pygtk.py is in /lib/python2.4 instead of /lib/python2.5, and from what I understood the packages need to be recompiled. Is there any workaround, other than downgrading to python 2.4? I ask this because my software should be run by people with little computer experience, and I would like to make the installation the simpler possible, and I think that when updated packages will be released the note "select the old version" would be obsolete. Any idea on when update packages will be released?

Memory leakage?
Hello list, I wonder if there is a memory leakage problem with the current cygwin release. After upgrading to it, and trying to compile Gnome (using garnome), the memory usage keeps increasing. Even after I've stopped the building process, the memory isn't freed up. Does anyone have the same expeerience?

Memory usage slowly increases over time, seemingly when there is lots of process creation going on such as during large makes. On my systems with paging turned off, eventually all memory is consumed and things really go to hell. I've found an easy testcase. Remember this bash script? #! /bin/bash mypath=$(pwd) while [[ ! -z $mypath ]] do mypath=$(pwd) if [[ -z $mypath ]] then echo "Test failed.. Path is empty." fi done I run this for a while and see gradually increasing memory usage. Even when all Cygwin processes are subsequently exited, that memory is not released. I also recoded that script for ash and ksh and the same thing happens, so it's not bash's problem. ..mark -- 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/

Let's not go down this path again. Cygwin has no magical powers to make Windows permanently use memory.

Suspect your anti-virus' on-access file scanner.

My home systems and work systems that show the problem have different sets of resident 3rd-party software, none of which seem to be on the Known Bad Apps list. I jumped to the wrong conclusion. The depressing alternate conclusion is that there are more Bad Apps to be added to the list. I'll see if I can figure out what those are.
