Hi folks
I was going to report this as a bug, but there's a bug in the Insight bug-reporting system ... :) at least with the link on your Bugs page
https://www.sourceware.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=insight&user=guest&password=guest&cmd=login
Anyway. I was trying to install Insight 6.8-1 on Windows 7 32bit, after first installing Cygwin. I ran into two types of bug, the first of which I could hack round and the second of which I couldn't:
I can't help you with sourceware.org: I have the same access permissions
as you have. Maybe try contacting sourcemaster at sourceware dot org.
However I see you are trying the latest insight official release, which
is very old and outdated: please try git cloning my own version from
https://github.com/monnerat/insight (in sync with gdb repo < 1 week).
I've compiled and run it this morning on Linux with success. I succeeded
with cygwin and mingw32 on W$ a few months ago. I am not a W$ guy, so
the support I can bring for your case is limited.
It's unofficial but I think this is the most up-to-date you'll find on
the net. In any case, you'll have more chance with it that with 6.8.1.
Good luck,
Patrick
