Updated: findutils-4.2.10-2

I've made a new version of 'findutils' available for installation.  This
updates the package to the latest version available from alpha.gnu.org.
This version is notable in that it seems to properly support files
greater than 2G.  It also includes a fix for the missing "tempfile"
program in updatedb.  It uses mktemp instead of "tempfile", although an
error message still erroneously mentions "tempfile".

I normally don't like release packages that are in "alpha" but since
this package built OOTB and removed the obsolete use of "tempfile",
I made an exception in this case.

For a brief descripton of this package, and listing of the files it
contains, see http://cygwin.com/packages/findutils .

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.  findutils
should be updated automatically, assuming that you are using a mirror
which has grabbed the latest version from sourceware.org.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin
mailing list.

Updated: findutils-4.2.10-5

I've made a new version of 'findutils' available for installation.  This
quick follow-up release should fix the problems with "Argument list too
long" errors that xargs was experiencing.

I made several previous release attempts, thinking that I had fixed
the problem before I realized that the presentation of the problem
seemed to be more-or-less random so it was possible to get a clean
run of xargs in one case and a failing one in another.  Weird.

Anyway, this one seems to work consistently after repeated runs.

I guess this is one of the pitfalls of installing alpha-quality
software.

contains, see http://cygwin.com/packages/findutils .

Updated: mc-4.6.1-1

Hello,

The Midnight Commander visual shell has been updated to version
4.6.1-1. This is major upgrade and the result of more than
one and a half year of bugfixing and code cleanup.

NOTE: There is no official MC 4.6.1 yet. The Cygwin package is
      based on MC 4.6.1-pre2 from CVS, which will eventually
      become MC 4.6.1.

A list of some of the more important bugfixes and new features
follows:

  Numerous bug fixes (vfs, editor, viewer).
  Fixed CAN-2004-0226 (buffer overflows).
  Fixed CAN-2004-0231 (unsafe temporary file and directory creation).
  Fixed CAN-2004-0232 (format string vulnerablities).
  Better support for ' <at> ' in FTP usernames.
  Large files are better supported (int -> off_t).
  Improve support for QNX Neutrino.
  Add gnome, rxvt and xterm-new terminals (keyword copy for mc.lib).
  Add support for qansi-m terminals.
  Remove support for pc port.
  Remove SCO support.
  Use 8bit input as default.
  Make the find dialog more responsive while scanning through large files.
  Add implementation to cons.handler for FreeBSD 4.x and 5.x.
  cons.saver does not need to be setuid-root on Linux.
  Hiding of FTP passwords.
  Hide temporary commands from history.
