Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: run-1.3.0-1

Greetings, Angelo Graziosi!

This is a bugfix update.



After this update, my Cygwin installation is basically broken. I have
several links on desktop to start Cygwin applications and they don't
work any more. The links target sound like these:

    C:\cygwin-2\bin\run.exe bash -l -c 'rm -rf /tmp/{.X*,dbus*,orbit*,*};
XWin -nowgl -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error 2>/dev/null &'

What "run.exe" does here? Could you please explain?

The above is the target field of the link (.lnk) that starts the X server, *only*.

The same link is in Start|All Programs|Autorun, so when I login, the X server starts automatically.

A.


C:\cygwin-2\bin\run.exe bash -l -c 'GSETTINGS_BACKEND=memory emacs
-display 127.0.0.1:0.0 2>/dev/null &'

C:\cygwin-2\bin\run.exe bash -l -c 'urxvt-X -display 127.0.0.1:0.0 -ls
-e /bin/bash -l 2>>/dev/null &'

etc...

They worked fine for years without any problem. Reverting the update to
previous version 1.2 of "run" allow the applications to work fine again.

Here is on Win XP 32b with Cygwin 32b, 1.7.22.
