Summary

0012478: Under Cygwin, FindLATEX does not find installed tools

Description

Modules/FindLATEX.cmake searches for ps2pdf differently according to whether the machine is WIN32 or not. However, ps2pdf can be present as a Cygwin package, and the FIND_PROGRAM tests as written will not find it.

Duplicate of issue 0012036

Steps To Reproduce

1. Install cygwin with cygwin ghostscript package
2. Do not install Windows native Ghostscript
3. Use cmake FIND_PACKAGE(LATEX)
4. Observe failure to find ps2pdf from ghostscript installation

Additional Information

recommend the code at the end of Modules/FindLATEX.cmake change to:

IF (WIN32)
  IF (CYGWIN)
    FIND_PROGRAM(PS2PDF_CONVERTER
      NAMES ps2pdf14 ps2pdf ps2pdf14.bat
      PATHS ${GHOSTSCRIPT_LIBRARY_PATH}
    )
  ELSE (CYGWIN)
    FIND_PROGRAM(PS2PDF_CONVERTER
      NAMES ps2pdf14.bat
      PATHS ${GHOSTSCRIPT_LIBRARY_PATH}
    )
  ENDIF (CYGWIN)
ELSE (WIN32)
  FIND_PROGRAM(PS2PDF_CONVERTER
    NAMES ps2pdf14 ps2pdf
  )
ENDIF (WIN32)

I've tested this, and it will find Cygwin-native tools in preference to native Windows ones.
