This is getting really icky... updated cygwin and it reinstalled a new version of perl, but when I try to run any perl progs nothing runs (see below). So I'd like to try to reinstall all the cygwin perl-mods that I have installed. How can I select "all" among the perl mods? and install? I can select for only the "installed" perl mods, but how can I tell it to reinstall all of them? According to /etc/setup, there are about 202 modules that need to be reinstalled, but I don't see howto tell setup to re-install all the "installed" modules (so I can be sure they are all "refreshed".
$ grep ^perl- /etc/setup/installed.db | cut -d' ' -f1 | paste -d, -s
