- Subject: Which snapshot file should I use?
Greetings,
I see the following files on the snapshot page:
winsup-src-*.tar.bz2 sources in the winsup directory
cygwin1-*.dll.bz2 stripped and compressed cygwin1.dll
cygwin1-*.dbg.bz2 debugging information for cygwin1.dll (rename to
/bin/cygwin1.dbg for use with gdb)
cygwin-inst-*.tar.bz2 directory from "make install" (dll, exes,
libs, headers, etc)
cygwin-src-*.tar.bz2 all sources needed to build cygwin1.dll
(winsup, newlib, etc)
I'm wondering under what circumstances do I use each of the above?
Thanks,
Bill
