When I try building 1.3.22-1 from the tarball, I get the rather perplexing error message: make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/w32api/Makefile', needed by `/lib/'. Stop. But I can't figure out why make wants to make /usr/lib/w32api/Makefile. I suggest the following workaround. I haven't tested it, but intuition suggests it should work. Here it is: tar jxvf path/to/cygwin-1.3.22-1-src.tar.bz2 cd cygwin-1.3.22-1/winsup/ tar jxvf path/to/w32api-2.3-1-src.tar.bz2 mv w32api-2.3-1 w32api tar jxvf path/to/mingw-runtime-2.4-1-src.tar.bz2 mv mingw-runtime-2.4-1 mingw cd ../.. mkdir cygbuild cd cygbuild ../cygwin-1.3.22-1/configure make Max. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
