Do you use sources from CVS? No bug, I just should have RTFF. After installing the source with the setup program, I naively tried to build it with: cd /usr/src/cygwin-1.3.3-2 ./configure make Oops. Seems the right way is something like this: mkdir cygwin-out cd cygwin-out /usr/src/cygwin-1.3.3-2/configure --srcdir=/usr/src/cygwin-1.3.3-2 make In my own defense I think the README file in /usr/src/cygwin* should make this explicit. Anyways, the make works like a charm now.
