Re error after installing cygwin64 4.3.1.1

[Robert May <tpibob at gmail dot com>]

The choice of using usr/local/bin was the way to go according to the INSTALL instructions with most of the programs.

some use ./confire    -    make     -     make install

some use      make     make install


I think one used just make and one used Build.

If I remember the wording correctly "they say" copy your "package" "program" to the usr/local/bin foler and then in cycgwin use cd drive:/cygwin64/usr/local/bin and the use the followinf commands or script to install the package/program

Personal preference: in general "/usr/local/bin" is not the place
that I will use as build area.

> $ ./configure

can you please clarify what is your problem ?

I tried to build samtools-1.3 and it has at least two issue
for a porting to cygwin:

- on Makefile there is a -rdynamic that does not work on cygwin
- the package require expl and logl that are not yet available in cygwin
