31246 svnwiki Wed Aug 20 22:55:00 2014 Anonymous wiki edit for IP [136.159.118.140]: On 2014-08-20 I had some troubles installing the bind egg on windows, with the error being spit out that there was an unknown symbol _mingw_glob in the function _mingw_setup, which is located in a pre-compiled file crt2.o (usually in C:\mingw\mingw32\lib\crt2.o). After consulting over IRC (#chicken on freenode), sjamaan recommended using the mingw-w64 project, which has been more actively maintained in the past year (I can only find traces of activity on mingw.org from 2013, and nothing newer). After removing mingw32, installing mingw-w64 and adding it to my $PATH variable, calling chicken-install bind worked without fail. Strangely enough, the mingw-w64 project actually uses an older version of gcc (4.7.2 vs. mingw32 using 4.8.1) and some of the GNU coreutils, which could be a reason why mingw32 does not work where mingw-w64 does. However, given that the error was an undefined reference to _mingw_glob, I would suspect this is not an error in newer versions of the GNU coreutils, but rather deliberate changes to the mingw32 API that the developers made (during some update). In any case, I'm going to investigate more into the issue to see if using mingw-w64 breaks any other eggs. I don't think it should, but hey, computers often do things we don't expect. If you want to get in contact with me about this issue, please query DeeEff (sometimes DeeEff_ if Freenode is having a spasm) or email me at jeremy at thatgeoguy.ca.

31126 mario Fri Jul 18 00:19:00 2014 Properly capitalize CHICKEN on the wiki directory (only first level). I used the following shell script to change things: while IFS= read -d $'\0' -r file ; do sed -i 's/Chicken/CHICKEN/g' "$file" done < <(find wiki -maxdepth 1 -type f -print0 ) Some files have been manually reverted after that, since some substitutions don't apply: - friedly-chicken (repl banner) - survey2011 (Chicken in URI paths) - chickenista-guide (Chickenista) I hope the link canonicalization thing will be on my side.
