Re: setup - 0p_000_autorebase.dash hangs

Hi,

I'm trying to install Cygwin on a Windows 7 laptop.

I've tried both the 64 and 32 bits version, but in both cases
0p_000_autorebase.dash hangs, and I can only cancel the setup.

The log file isn't written until I cancel the setup. After cancellation, I
can see these lines at the bottom, but I can't find any special error:

2015/06/07 10:47:06 Changing gid back to original
Visited: 71 nodes out of 5273 while creating dependency order.
[cut]
2015/06/07 10:47:06 running: C:\cygwin64\bin\dash.exe
"/etc/postinstall/0p_000_autorebase.dash"
2015/06/07 10:55:53 note: Installation Complete
2015/06/07 10:55:53 Ending cygwin install

They just seem to indicate that 0p_000_autorebase.dash stayed running for a
few minutes, until I pressed Cance.

Do you have any hints?
Thank you.
Regards,
Pier

It may be a side effect of
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-06/msg00133.html

with current cygwin 2.0.3 I see bash processes remaining running,
and I need to kill them. It seems race/load dependent.
May be it is happening in your case to the dash process.

With Takeshi's patch I do not see the effect on 32bit;
I have not yet tested on 64bit.

If you are interested to test I can provided a new cygwin1.dll.

Regards
Marco
