Where are the instructions for building setup? Are they in a FAQ
somewhere or in the source tree? For that matter how do you figure out
to get the source from cvs?
I already know some of these answers ie:
cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/cygwin-apps co setup
cd setup
./bootstrap.sh
cd ..
mkdir build
cd build
../setup/configure <I DONT KNOW WHAT GOES HERE>
make
I figured this much out by stumbling around blindly. I was wondering if
there was an easy to find reference on cygwin.com somewhere that I can
use when I forget some of this stuff.
