I have searched the archives and googled the web but have not found an answer yet. I am hoping to do some C++ development and wish to use GCC, GDB etc... from cygwin. I have installed everything I need, apart from automake1.9. The files are all unpacked, however when the installer runs: "etc/postinstall/automake1.9.sh" The following pops up: "The procedure entry point ___getreent could not be located in the dynamic link library cygwin.dll" I thought that this is the type of error that you see if the wrong versions of files are being used when trying to link or execute components? I am running the installer directly from the cygwin homepage. Any suggestions?
