Re: [sleuthkit-users] afflib problems

Hi, Jason. Sorry that you are continuing to have problems.  
Maintaining software that compiles on the 1000-or-so different  
versions of Linux out there, including the versions of Linux that are  
hosted under Windows, is proving to be quite a challenge.

It appears that your Cygwin installation includes a definition for  
err.h, even though many versions do not. It is a flaw in the  
configuration script that we are not picking this up. In the  
meantime, you might try commenting out the definition of errx and err  
on line  137 and 138 of afflib_i.h. Please send your response to me  
directly and not to the list. In the meantime, I will prepare a new  
version of afflib that deals with this.

-Simson
