Please download gettext-0.17-11-src.tar.bz2 from the cygwin mirror system (you can use setup.exe to install the source package if you like). Then, use "cygport gettext-0.17-11.cygport almostall' to build and "package" gettext for cygwin. If you have the same error, then I'll try to reproduce (but I'm a bit busy for the next few weeks) > collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault], core dumped Well, ld shouldn't coredump, that's for sure. I'd suspect a problem in ld rather than gettext, tho. To debug it, you'd need to build a debuggable version of ld, and set up just-in-time debugging (e.g. add to your CYGWIN variable the following: error_start:c:\cygwin\bin\gdb.exe -- Chuck -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
