Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-PMX-Version: 4.7.1.128075, Antispam-Engine: 2.0.3.2, Antispam-Data: 2005.8.8.25 X-PerlMx-Spam: Gauge=IIIIIII, Probability=7%, Report='__CT 0, __CT_TEXT_PLAIN 0, __HAS_MSGID 0, __MIME_TEXT_ONLY 0, __MIME_VERSION 0, __SANE_MSGID 0' From Cygwin 1.5.17-1, the problems which I met with Emacs were that after rebasing all, Emacs did not work any more. After several attemps I discovered that is sufficient to reinstall the package libncurses7 to make Emacs works again. Now I am working with Emacs (in X) that is in test section, i.e. the version 21.3.50-2 and I have not noticed any instability. Every time I should rebaseall for some application that request that, I, after the rebasing, reinstall libncurses7 and have not any problems with Emacs. This question pushed me to use the snapshots of Cygwin. Now I am using the snap 20050806.
