How exactly? Ash is a part of the 'Base' category, a minimal Cygwin installation. This means that postinstall scripts et al expect a 'Base' install ie., they expect ash to be installed. Adding a symlink `bash -> sh' to the bash packages is an option, but c'mon what's ~40K between Cygwin'ers? :-) Elfyn -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
