QUESTION

What is the file named "setup.zst.sig" during installation?

Asked 2019-Feb-14 at 18:54

I note that when cygwin's setup.exe installs packages now, it looks for a file named "setup.zst.sig" first. What's the content and format of this binary file? How to produce a valid "setup.zst.sig"?

This must have been a recent change. Previously it looked for "setup.exe.sig" first. I use the feature (to detect whether "setup.exe.sig" changed) to decide whether my cygwin installation needs to be updated. See also this for an application example.

setup.zst.sig is not yet used. The "zst" functionality was introduced in the program to eventually replace the previous compression methods of setup.ini and the packages

QUESTION

How do I use third party TTF fonts on Cygwinx? How about Windows fonts?

Asked 2018-Jul-30 at 20:07

This is 2 questions in one. Should I split them in two separate questions? I think in the end is the same thing.

I want to use some third party ttf fonts on my Cygwinx programs and I've being searching the web and Cygwin's docs and FAQs to see how to install this fonts on it. If it is possible to use third party fonts. How do I use all the fonts that windows already has installed?

It is as simple as that, I have a lot of fonts on windows and installed Cygwin on top of windows. I thought that Cygwin would automatically use all those nice fonts, but no! there is only a subset of them, and I'm starting to think that this subset of fonts are just open fonts that come with Cygwin with some aliases.

What have I tried?

Searching on Google, a lot!
Reading and searching CygwinX docs.
Searching Cygwin files for ttf fonts or related fonts configs.
Tried to understand /etc/fonts/* by myself.
Searching for some "font-update" program that is mentioned on some old (2005) emails of the Cygwin mailing list.

All that without any real achievement.

I'm using Windows 10 (64 bits) and Cygwin64 (installed through the Cygwin-Setup version 2.891).

The subset of windows fonts used by cygwin is defined by postinstall script

/etc/postinstall/zp_fontconfig_cache_1.sh

the Windows fonts are linked in /usr/share/fonts/microsoft

On my system around 229 of the 350 present under C:\windows\Fonts are selected.

You can copy your extra fonts in the same directory and run the same script.

QUESTION

Problems installing virtualenvwrapper in Cygwin

Asked 2017-Dec-11 at 20:38

I'm trying to get started with a book called "TDD with Python", OS W10. As part of the setup it wants you to install virtualenvwrapper. The recommendation is to use GitBash in Windows... but I've been using Cygwin for quite a bit and didn't like GitBash when I looked at it some time ago.

Python version is 3.6. I installed virtualenvwrapper by going
