Your Cygwin installation is most certainly not up-to-date, so I think you tried to mix-and-match instead of updating. If you do that, you shouldn't hide the OBSOLETE category and you really are on your own if you break things this way. Besides, you might have an msys perl in path, which could be interfering further. But fix your installation first, please. > Package Version Status > _autorebase 000651-1 OK That is old. > perl_autorebase 5.14.4-3 OK Doesn't work due to the wrong _autorebase version- > perl_base 5.14.4-3 OK > perl_vendor 5.14.2-3 OK This comes from the previous Perl and has been obsoleted. You need to install the obsoletion package to get the distributions formerly packaged in perl_vendor into your installation. You will have to reinstall all other perl packages on your system when fixing that.
