With a Cygwin CVS tree I built this AM < (2) below >
rxvt has problems when configuring a project from a build directory
ie
$TOP_DIR
src
build
cd $TOP_DIR/build
../configure
The problems vary from run to run ranging from 'error parsing uname'
to program hang < recoverable with 'ctrl-C' > making me suspect a
possible data loss
Using the gcc option -pipe seems to allow the configure process
Using the -pipe flag I have not seen the uname error but it does
eventually hang when actually creating the Makefiles
This project uses libtool
With the CVS tree build (1) below I do not experience this
(1) 10-Dec-2002 7:10:38a 6,683,847 cygwin-20021210.tar.gz
(2) 12-Dec-2002 6:09:42a 6,688,318 cygwin-20021212.tar.gz
The times are EST and the tarballs are created by a script that
does a CVS update, make, make tarball which takes ~20 minutes
so the CVS update time should be approximately 20 minutes earlier
Any 'tips' as to how to best debug this appreciated
Norman
