Hi,

If you just want to use SageMath under Windows 10,

a new SageMath installer for Windows was developed

by Erik Bray, using Cygwin behind-the-scenes.

To try it out, download the .exe from the first item at

    https://github.com/embray/sage-windows/releases/

Another way is to install the Ubuntu PPA using the

"Windows Subsystem for Linux" that can be installed

in certain versions of Windows 10.

Another way is using a virtual machine.

See a recap on Ask Sage at

  https://ask.sagemath.org/question/34350/installing-on-windows-10/

That said, having people successfully install on Cygwin

from the sources would be very valuable for the Sage

community, so thanks for trying that and for reporting,

hopefully some SageMath on Cygwin experts can help.

Buildbots for SageMath on Cygwin are in the process of

being installed by Erik Bray, in order to ensure that future

versions of SageMath will consistently build on Cygwin.

Your question also suggests it would be worth updating the

wiki page you mention with some of the information here.

Best, Samuel

Maybe you could try sagemathcloud ?

this is a recent update, probably noone yet has got around to try this on Cygwin.

You might try downgrading to gsl-1.16, or rather try to find out why gsl 2 does not build on

Cygwin.

Probably Cygwin supplies its own gsl version, so it's good to try to find out how they make it to work.
