<font size=2 face="sans-serif">A few days ago I reported that I was having
trouble building Cbc under Cygwin. I have one or two more bits of
information that may give somebody a clue about what's going wrong.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">During "make", we get occasional
warnings that all look like this:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> libtool: link: warning:
undefined symbols not allowed in i686-pc-cygwin shared libraries</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">During "make test", we get:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> make[2]: Entering directory
`...Osi/src/Osi'</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> .deps/OsiAuxInfo.Plo:1:
*** multiple target patterns. Stop.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> make[2]: Leaving directory
`...Osi/src/Osi'</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> Makefile:523: recipe for
target `all-recursive' failed</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> make[1]: *** [all-recursive]
Error 1</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> make[1]: Leaving directory
`...Osi'</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> Makefile:314: recipe for
target `all-recursive' failed</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> make: *** [all-recursive]
Error 1 </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">For comparison, I just did the build
in a more conventional Linux environment (a VMWare emulation, in this case,
but I don't think that matters), and got through "make test"
with no errors. By the way, the set of compiler warnings I get during
build is slightly different in the two environments.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">So, it seems that there is something
about our Cygwin configuration that wasn't anticipated by the COIN build
tools: does anyone have additional insight?</font>
