- Subject: [cygwin setup from cvs] string: present but cannot be compiled
Pulled cygwin setup source from cvs
(as suggested here:
http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html,
I used:
cvs -z3 -d
:pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/cygwin-apps
co setup
I got the following warning:
** BEGIN QUOTE **
checking string presence... yes
configure: WARNING: string: present but cannot be
compiled
configure: WARNING: string: check for missing
prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: string: proceeding with the
preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: ##
------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING: ## Report this to
bug-autoconf@gnu.org. ##
configure: WARNING: ##
------------------------------------ ##
checking for string... yes
checking for string.h... (cached) yes
** END QUOTE **
Referring to page:
http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2003-06/msg00092.html
I tried this:
$ cat main.c
#include <string.h>
$ gcc main.c
/usr/bin/../lib/libcygwin.a(libcmain.o)(.text+0x7c):
undefined reference to `WinMain@16'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
(I tried searching this list and the apps list for
"string: present but cannot be compiled", but got no
hits.)
Not sure if this is worth reporting, but in case,
I submit it here. Sorry if this is inappropriate
venue.
Cordially,
Perry
