Cygwin Make Just Keeps Entering Directory when making sip package

favorite












I am trying to install sip as per the instructions here. I've installed Cygwin to allow me to use the make command in Windows (I'm using Windows 10). I run the configure.py file, and this creates a Makefile. I then run make from the Cygwin terminal, and all it does is print over and over again



make
make[####]: Entering directory 'cygdrive/c/Users/****/sip-4.19.13'
cd sipgen


Where #### keeps increasing with every iteration.



Any idea what's wrong here?

          As you have not reported exactly how you did the things;

          the following works for me:

          $ python2 configure.py
          This is SIP 4.19.13 for Python 2.7.14 on cygwin.
          The SIP code generator will be installed in /usr/bin.
          The sip.h header file will be installed in /usr/include/python2.7.

          make[1]: Leaving directory '/cygdrive/d/cyg_pub/tmp/sip-4.19.13/siplib'


          so what steps were different for you ?
