Precisely 2 Question:
1. Is it Ok to replace delete Quartus's Cygwin installation and put a newly customized cygwin package in same default location?
location such as
C:\altera\13.1\quartus\bin\cygwin C:\altera\13.1\quartus\bin64\cygwin 2. Is it Ok to use latest cygwin setup exe (from
https://cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe) to update & install some other tools on Quartus's Cygwin installation?
like targeting the installation locaton by:
setup-x86.exe -R "
C:\altera\13.1\quartus\bin\cygwin" -l
E:\cygwin_pack_forInstall\ -v -P wget,chere,mintty,lynx
"Is it OK" means... will it cause error / weird symptoms in Quartus/NiosII/Qsys during build or the built binary-outcome?
Don't know has anybody had any study in such methods? :S
My scenario is, me & my colleagues all installed Quartus 13.1(windows version)
We might use NiosII shell to modify/enhance some workflow, this may need install/update some additional packages on cygwin
But i don't want to open another cygwin shell / install another cygwin installation to accomplish such enhancement. :S
And precisely one of the problem now is I found the default installed mintty working weird. (need press twice close button to close)
But if I update mintty, the problem is gone!
