cygwin-apps is bouncing my mail

2014-01-04 Thread Erwin Waterlander

Hi,

I try to send messages to cygwin-apps, but they bounce back with a failure.
Is there something wrong?

regards,
Erwin

Hi,

GnuPG <= 1.4.16 has an interesting security vulnerability which might
result in disclosure of private keys ( see
http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-announce/2013q4/000337.html ).
So please update it to 1.4.16 release.

Thanks,
Ismail

Re: GPG on cygwin

I want to build GPG 2.0.22 for use on Cygwin.

But, GPG now requires:
   #1 Support for the GNU Portable Threads Library (Pth).
   #  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/pth/

and the following libraries: (current cygwin lib which do exist are too old)
#  libgpg-error  ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgpg-error >= VERS 1.11 is 
required.
#  libassuan ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libassuan>= VERS 2.0.0 (API 
2)
#  libksba   ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libksba  >= VERS 1.0.7 API 1

Does anyone know if any of the above packages can not be built easily for 
Cygwin?
( I.e., by someone without Cygwin & MS Windows internal knowledge.)

Thanks



Not easily, look here for info

If you're getting bounced email when you send to this list, you should first
look at the bounce email message closely.  It should explain why the email
is bouncing and possible remedies.  For example, it may say that you aren't
subscribed to the list (see http://cygwin.com/lists.html for a summary of
Cygwin lists, their charter and requirements).  If you still find yourself
in a quandary as to why your email is bouncing after reviewing your options,
please send any follow-up inquiry to sourcemas...@sourceware.org.  Sending
pleas to this list is really regarded as spam since you're appealing to a
large group of people that really can't resolve your problem for you even
if they wanted to.  That's up to you and, possibly, sourcemaster.  The link
above describing the Cygwin mail lists explains all this so do take a
look at it if you need more details.

Sorry but this is incorrect.  You send the bounce to the place that the
bounce suggests and that's cygwin-owner, not sourcemaster.

The bottom line is that you need to read the bounce message.  This is never
the right place to send email about problems sending email.

And, btw, I'm adding a "bouncing.*email" and "email.*bouncing" block to
the bad subject filter for this mailing list to reinforce that.

Re: Libevent configuring fails with "checking whether the C compiler works... no"

As usual, bad advice from third-party sites.  Remove steps two and three 
there, and install libevent-devel and libncursesw-devel from the distro 
instead (you already have the latter).



I've tried to install libevent from the sources, but cannot configure it:


I did notice you have x86 DLLs in your C:\cygwin64\bin (grep your 
cygcheck.out for "not x86_64 dll").  Also, your PATH is constructed in 
such a way that /usr/bin is present twice (notice the duplicate entries 
throughout); I suggest fixing those issues, then see if you can compile 
a basic "hello world".
