One case I can think of is the cygwin dll. I have had to figure out how to build it. Instead, I am working on GCC 3.1 -----Original Message----- From: cygwin-owner@sources.redhat.com [mailto:cygwin-owner@sources.redhat.com]On Behalf Of steve.snyder@philips.com Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2001 6:42 PM To: cygwin@cygwin.com Subject: Request to package maintainers Hello. I would like to make a request of Cygwin's package maintainers: please leave the generated config.cache file in the source package. I suggest this to aid in rebuilding from source packages. As it is, those who want to rebuild there own binaries have no idea what config options were used in the standard cygwin build. The user who wants to rebuild the source with config option A may be losing the options X, Y and Z used in the original cygwin build. Thank you. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
