11 years agoI have resolved my Issue (although I feel there may still be issues)
When copying all the the cygwin patch files into the altera install directories there is a file <current> with no extention located in <cygwin_patch>\bin64\cygwin\usr\share\groff it is also present in the x86 path <cygwin_patch>\bin64\cygwin\usr\share\groff. This file appears to be a symbolic link to the 1.22.2 folder located in the same path. When I open it in notepad++ there is one line that reads !<symlink>1.22.2 NUL Having copied every file except for these "current" files into the altera into the install directory I can now successfully compile the tutorial files. I am wondering if I should replace the folder within the install folder with the files contained in the 1.22.2 directory. (effectively creating the symbolic link for real) However, I am going to stop here before I do that because it is working with out doing that.
