RE: 20040217 snapshot problem + gdb runtime error (also cygpath)


I just wanted to report that I have the same problem with the cygwin
snapshots that I have tried (0217,0218,0220,0221) on my (now freshly
reinstalled) w2k machine with all hotfixes and servicepacks applied. I
have also tried with XFree86-xserv 4.3.0-44 with same results.

Another application that causes the same error-message is cygpath.

Just to make sure I'm not doing something wrong when I install the
patches, here's what I do:

* (From FAQ): unzip cygwin-inst-200402**.tar.bz2 in / and /tmp. Move
/tmp/usr/bin/cygwin1.dll to /cygwin/bin
* Reboot machine
* start cygwin (bash-shell) and run rebaseall -v

Thanks,
Henrik
