Help me re-compile b20.1 22 Dec 1998 17:24:24 -0800 Message-ID: References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com Thanks to DJ Delorie, I know what's gone wrong. I made a grave error in assuming that user-src.tar.bz2 is the source for user.exe and dev-src.tar.bz2 is the source for full.exe That's not true, I actually need both to have the 'source' for full.exe! Mr Readme & Mr FAQ, can you update the readme to point this fact out? Thanks. Does anyone know who I put this request to (if Mr Readme & Mr FAQ are not reading this). Thanks.
