It doesn't get past this line: eval `${MAKE-make} -f conftestmake 2>/dev/null | grep temp=` I echoed the above: eval `${MAKE-make} -f conftestmake 2>/dev/null | grep temp=` and it returned the following: ac_maketemp=\make" Is that the unterminated quote string? I can't find where it is set. Seems like all quotes have a closing quote for each open quote. Can somebody help me? Attached is a textfile containing the output from a cygcheck -r -s -v. I hope you can help me. Thanks. Joyce -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Send a message to cygwin-unsubscribe AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com
