Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] [1.7] Updated: cygwin-1.7.0-66


I just downloaded cygwin 1.7 and received version -65 instead from mirror.nyi.net (http). What is wrong?

.$ uname -v
2009-11-19 10:07

Did I catch the download in the middle of a critical update?

Hi folks,


I just uploaded a new Cygwin 1.7 test release, 1.7.0-66.


If this doesn't introduce any new regressions, this will (probably)
be the last test release.


Bugfixes in relation to 1.7.0-65: ================================

- Fix the problem that 64 bit DLLs are accidentally getting a ".exe"
  suffix when renaming them.

- Fix two potential socket handle leaks introduced in -64.

- Fix security vulnerability in gdtoa:
  http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-0689

The next bugfix had been applied to 1.7.0-65 already.  I just forgot
to mention it:

- Fix a bug in the fast math tan() implementation for x87 FPUs.


FAQ: ====

- Q: How do I know that I'm running Cygwin 1.7.0-66?

A: The `uname -v' command prints "2009-11-25 13:41"


Have fun, Corinna
