gedit install
I have installed gedit using the Cygwin setup. I executed gedit and the below appeared. (gedit:959): dconf-WARNING **: failed to commit changes to dconf: Failed to execute child process “dbus-launch” (No such file or directory) (gedit:959): dconf-WARNING **: failed to commit changes to dconf: Failed to execute child process “dbus-launch” (No such file or directory) And I could not set the line number presentation. I have installed dbus-x11 using the cygwin setup and I could set the line number presentation.

Accessing long filesystem paths using Python
Hi, I need to write files whose path exceed the maximum value of 260 characters. Using Windows paths, you can add \\?\ as prefix, e.g., \\?\C:\Users\foo\bar\ However, it seems like this is not the case in Cygwin. When I use \\?\/home/foo/bar, I get no file pointer back. Does someone have a clue how I can bypass this? Best, Fritjof -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Incorrect results from 'cygpath -w' when having anaconda installed
Hello! I am having incorrect results from 'cygpath -w': ### I have the cygwin root directory in C:\cygwin64, as confirmed by 'cmd': $ cmd Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22621.674] (c) Microsoft Corporation. Med enerett. C:\cygwin64\home\Enrique>exit ### Cygwin thinks my home directory is: $ pwd /home/Enrique ### But 'cygpath -w' thinks ... $ cygpath -w /home/Enrique C:\Users\Enrique\anaconda3\Library\home\Enrique ### Investigating, I found that there is no 'home' in C:\Users\Enrique\anaconda3\Library. ### Then I discovered this: $ mount C:/Users/Enrique/anaconda3/Library on / type ntfs (binary,noacl,auto) C:/Users/Enrique/anaconda3/Library/usr/bin on /bin type ntfs (binary,noacl,auto) C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,noacl,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) Huh ??? How does this work? Is there a way to hide the mounts done by anaconda? I guess some anaconda binaries want to find the 'Library' directory as the root, but cygwin continues to find its own root under C:/cygwin64. Why does it get tripped by the anaconda install just when doing the path translation? -Enrique -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
