[kepler-users] Problem building Kepler 2.4 on Cygwin

[Jianwu Wang]

Hi Jonathan,

     Thanks for your experiment sharing. I'm glad you made it working. 
So the reason you had problem at the beginning is because the svn was 
installed by Cygwin?

     My svn is tortoise svn 1.7.3. The version dependency on 
https://kepler-project.org/developers/teams/build/systems/build-system/extension-build-system 
are the ones we mainly tested against. We assume newer versions of these 
tools have backward compatibility and work too.

Best wishes

Sincerely yours
