Re: Re: upgrading broke cygwin?


I upgraded to the 1.3.20-1 version dll today and saw very similar and
strange behavior.  Some things wouldn't execute due to permissions errors,
and other would execute from commandline but not from a script.  What causes
this, I don't know.

I ran setup.exe again, found the "base" cygwin install, cycled through the
keep/uninstall/revert until 1.9-19 version came up, and installed the older
version.  Everything seems to be working fine now.

I wish I could help with what's broke, but I don't have a clue. 

There's a recent remark in the list that's there's no way to uninstall - the
procedure above seems to work just fine.

Cheers,

Val
