Guys, theres a major problem with setup.
According to the error I just got, setup is not
closing any of its files after writing them.
I finally got past xorg, and got up to update_info.
I'll rerun setup to get a cygcheck.
I can confirm this. We took a snapshot of October 26th
(setup-timestamp: 1098732614), and in that version of setup,
none of
the file handles for any of the temp files of the form (where c:\temp
is your temporary package directory) c:\temp\http%.....\package.tar.bz2
is ever released. The system starts page faulting and the number of
handles just grows and grows, and eventually setup dies like this:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error
Runtime Error!
Program \\samba\install\win32\cygwin\setup.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an
unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for
more information.
