Subject: cygport bug: doesn't understand "DOS" line endings
To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com
MIME-Version: 1.0

Hello, I was trying to build the waf cygport (i.e. http://sourceforge.net/p/cygwin-ports/waf/ci/master/tree/ ), and kept getting a cryptic error message:

*** ERROR: inherit: unknown cygclass python3

Since there was definitely a /usr/share/cygport/cygclass/python3.cygclass file, this made no sense to me.

I modified /usr/share/cygport/lib/inheritance.cygpart so that line 39 read

 error "inherit: unknown cygclass ${_privclassdir}/${classname}.cygclass WTF";

And got the interesting error message

.cygclass WTFherit: unknown cygclass /usr/share/cygport/cygclass/python3

That's when I realized that the CR character was being included in the module name.

I ran dos2unix on the .cygport file and all was well.

You may want to modify cygport to handle DOS-style line-endings.

Thanks,
Steven Boswell
