Hello.
Today I run setup to upgrade all packages: an error popped up saying
xinit post-install script was not able to complete.
I'm in fact missing Cygwin-X entries in start menu.
I tried running it again, but I always get the same error.
Extract from setup.log.full:
removing /var/cache/rebase/rebase_lst
creating empty /var/cache/rebase/rebase_lst
Updating rebase information for installed dynamic objects in
/var/cache/rebase/rebase_lst.
Updating rebase information for installed executables in
/var/cache/rebase/rebase_exe.
Rebasing with list /var/cache/rebase/rebase_all, built from
/var/cache/rebase/rebase_dyn /var/cache/rebase/rebase_lst.
