> It seems that all packages selected from Cygwin setup are missing. > Only packages installed with command pip3.8 install are listed. python?? python??-devel python??-test python??-tkinter python??-debuginfo idle?? are all built from the CPython source. None of the corresponding files would be recognized by pip on any platform, as they are part of base python, rather than third-party extensions. |pip3.8 list| will also not recognize python38 as being installed, no matter what setup.exe tells you, for much the same reason. All other python??-* packages ([1]) were installed using pip, so |pip list| will find them just fine. Short version: Cygwin package != PyPI package, and pip only cares about the latter [1] except the python??-*-debuginfo packages -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
