Re: configure fails on checking ino_t


hi Csaba

that part of config.log is not interesting:

[..]
configure:17948: result: yes
configure:17957: checking for ino_t
configure:17957: gcc -c -g -O2  conftest.c >&5
configure:17957: $? = 0
configure:17957: gcc -c -g -O2  conftest.c >&5

[..]

I'm very puzzled. But don't run Cygwin setup in
case it breaks your setup, is my thought...

thanks

I hope nothing, because it works for me:


checking for dev_t... yes
checking for ino_t... yes
checking for time_t... yes
checking size of dev_t... 4
checking size of ino_t... 8
checking size of time_t... 8
checking size of long... 8
checking size of int... 4


You should at least post the relevant part from config.log (the part
beginning with

configure:17957: checking for ino_t

).
