Re: Problems when building Insight

[Chris Faylor <cgf at cygnus dot com>]

You are building using a cygwin snapshot but you probably haven't installed
everything in a consistent location.

This error shows up very very very very very very very very frequently
when people download a cygwin snapshot but do not have all of the
libraries in a consistent place on their system.

I would suggest either 1) downloading the newest cygwin net release and
building everything with that, 2) perusing the cygwin mailing list archives
(reachable via http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/), or 3) sending a message
to the cygwin mailing list: cygwin@sourceware.cygnus.com.
