Missing libdts in latest cygwin contribbin?

I was trying to build the latest version of handbrake and after my usual changes of "CYGWIN_NT-5.1" to "CYGWIN_NT-6.0-WOW64", I got the following error:

ranlib: 'lib/libdts.a': No such file
make: *** [app] Error 1

in \contrib\lib\ there was a libdts.a but it was a shortcut to "/home/Scott/pack/contrib/lib/libdca.a"

So I'm just assuming that libdts is missing from this contribbin.

libdts is not used anymore, should compile just fine. libdts.a shortcut will be removed from the next pack.

Just out of interest, where exactly did you get cygwin 6 from?

Theres not a version change :D .On Vista x64 it identifies as 6.0-WOW64 instead of 5.1 so for it to properly detect that I am using windows I need to change that.

Anyway the reason I posed this in the first place was because I got an error when running "make HandbrakeCLI":

$ make HandbrakeCLI

Although after finally compiling jam I was able to jam HB.

yeh, jam would work. Do you still get the error now with make?

Needs to be a clean checkout.

yes, its not been fixed yet.

A new contrib pack is needing built due to updated libaries but i'm on holiday atm so it'll be 2 weeks b4 i get a chance to update it.

If you have a dualcore system you can use jam -j 2
to speed up the compile as it is.

Should be fixed in rev 978
Let me know if that new contrib pack works. Make sure you test on a clean checkout

Worked fine - on updating an existing checkout as well.
Thanks a lot for this.
