I am trying to build db-mysql extension for NodeJS under Cygwin. The problem is, that it requires libmysql development libraries and include files. I have no idea how to install (and where to get) this stuff to work with Cygwin. Under Ubuntu i would write something like this:
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
But this is not possible under Cygwin. Also there is no available libmysql package when I run Cygwin's setup.exe. Does anybody know how to solve this isue?
I have installed wamp under Windows which includes MySQL database. I would like to use databases from that installation under Cygwin, is that possible?
Thanks
It's available from Cygwin Ports, a large repository of additional Cygwin packages that can be installed through Cygwin's setup.exe.

I am using Ubuntu 18.04
I built a mips cross-compiler using buildroot, but when I tried to test whether it would work,I got this message
/home/daisy/repos/repo/buildroot/output/host/bin/../libexec/gcc/mipsel-buildroot-linux-uclibc/9.3.0/cc1: error while loading shared libraries: libmpfr.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I searched for solutions , one of which said this:
sudo pacman -S mpfr
Well , my Linux isn't archlinux, this didn't work for me.
somebody please tells me how to deal with it.
The above suggestions of installing libmpfr on your host system are wrong. Buildroot is supposed to have build libmpfr, it should be present in host/lib, and picked up by the cross-compiler by virtue of it having a proper RPATH. If it doesn't work, we need to figure out why, but the correct thing is not to install libmpfr on your host system.
In Ubuntu, apt command (Advanced Packaging Tool) is used for performing such functions as installation of new software packages, upgrade of existing software packages, updating of the package list index, and even upgrading the entire Ubuntu system.
Try this command :-
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install libmpfr6
This will install shared libraries: libmpfr.so.6 to your Ubuntu system.
Hope It Helps !
I had Wireshark-1.10.14 on my Linux machine.
I installed Wireshark-2.6.12 (from source). Now when opening Wireshark,
I see that the Wireshark-2.6.12 is without Lua support (from the Wireshark > help about).
What do I need to do in order for the Wireshark to open with Lua?
You need to install the lua 5.1 or 5.2 development packages. Note that wireshark still does not support lua 5.3
On Debian/Ubuntu run
sudo apt-get install liblua5.2-dev
On Fedora run
sudo dnf install compat-lua-devel
Also you could find some helper scripts in the tools sub-directory that should install all of the development dependencies.
debian-setup
rpm-setup.sh
then in the wireshark's build directory execute
rm CMakeCache.txt
cmake ..
i have an device running on Pure Linux, there is no Package installer installed on that, the only thing i have is SSH and therefore also an Terminal. Commands like apt-get, dpkg, yum dont work.
How do i install apt-get over SSH? I've saw some suggestions that use yum, make or dpkg to install apt-get, but since i've neither of them...
For debian based systems exists a tool called apt-offline. That's perfect in that scenario.

To install additional packages for Cygwin, do I just need to run the setup.exe again and choose from the packages list?
Also, doing this won't harm my computer in terms of 2 Cygwin instances being installed or problems of that kind (I'm kind of a noobie with these things).
Last, there is no package manager in Cygwin which you can run in the command line? Something similar to Pip in Python.
No, adding additional packages doesn’t modify the current settings. There is a
package manager called apt-cyg which installes additional packages from
command-line. To install apt-cyg follow the below steps:
wget rawgit.com/transcode-open/apt-cyg/master/apt-cyg
install apt-cyg /bin
Note: wget should be installed for downloading the apt-cyg. To Use apt-cyg for
installing additional package (after following the above steps):
apt-cyg install ncurses
No, it doesn't hurt the current setup. The install program knows what's installed already.
Having said that, I long ago got into the habit of installing all of Cygwin since, despite its size, it's still minuscule compared to the size of modern hard disks. That way, you won't ever have to worry about whether a package is installed or not.
Re-run the setup executable like "cygwin_setup-x86_64.exe" should do it.
"Install from Internet"
Accept your existing root directory (from your existing installation)
Use your existing "Local Package Directory"
On the screen, view "Full"
Search for the new package you want to add
Go through the installation
Additional option, may be helpful for someone:
To install additional packages in windows from windows command line you can use your cygwin installer.
I suppose, you've already downloaded it to install cygwin from here https://cygwin.com/install.html.
$ setup-x86_64.exe -q -P graphviz
see this guide for details:
http://preshing.com/20141108/how-to-install-the-latest-gcc-on-windows/
There is no package management in Cygwin outside of the setup program. The setup only applies updates to your current installation, it does not overwrite packages than what you already have.
So if you want new packages just rerun the setup program to install packages.
You can just look for the package binaries and decompress them in the C:\cygwin\bin folder.
I did that for dos2unix ( https://cygwin.com/packages/summary/dos2unix.html ) and trying it out now.
I am trying to install emacs in offline computer.
but every time I try to build from the source and install it, it doesn't make it.
too complicated.
(terminal ./configure => error try with --without-makeinfo,
after a while, error try with --without-x,
after a while, error can't find emacs version...(and I also want to use X version))
so I want to download emacs binary file but I can't find for linux one.
where can I download pre-build binary emacs 23.3(lastest) for ubuntu?
I can download emacs 23.3 binary file for windows but not for ubuntu.
You could get the deb file directly from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/e/emacs-snapshot/emacs-snapshot_20090909-1_amd64.deb and then try to install it using dpkg -i but there will probably be dependencies which you might miss. I'd suggest you try an apt-get install emacs-snapshot on your target machine. It will tell you all the packages it needs to fetch (along with URLs). Fetch all of them from a machine connected to the net and then dpkg -i those packages.
You can try the Ubuntu Emacs PPA here.
type in terminal
apt-get update
apt-get install emacs
for compile, are you download last version ? http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/emacs/
you can download deb file here
