Re: cygwin cannot find src tree when trying to compile perl

What kind of windows OS are you running Cygwin on?
I have cygwin on a NT4 and Win95 machines.
On the Win95 machine cygwin didn't come with perl
so I just used ActiveState perl.
On the NT4 machine I didn't have to do nothing
except click on cygiwn's setup link.

this is part of a larger software package where the current installation of perl will be unknown so I would like to include my own known version. To do this I need to compile my own version (there are also several architectures involved Hp10, nt, etc). Thanks	[reply]
