That's a typical rebaseall problem, as advertised in the perl ANNOUNCEMENT. Install rebase, read /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rebase-2.4.4.README snip Use the following procedure to rebase your entire system: 1. shutdown all Cygwin processes and services 2. start ash (do not use bash or rxvt) 3. execute /bin/rebaseall (in the ash window) -- Reini Urban http://phpwiki.org/ http://murbreak.at/ -- 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/
