The only wget on my PATH is Cygwin's:

Hello all,
Short solution: install cygwin-provided wget and change CPAN setting to
use /usr/bin/wget, not Windows native wget.exe.

Hi Gerrit,
thanks for your and all the others' replies.
- The CPAN repository and build directory *must* reside in a path
mounted in binmode:
mount -s -b -f c:/cygwin/home/username/.cpan /home/username/.cpan
mou
Could something along these lines be done in the postinstall for perl?
(Only if the mount doesn't exist of cause...)
Alternatively, maybe the CPAN module could issue a warning when it's
running under cygwin using a textmode-mounted .cpan directory.

Hi Gerrit,
thanks for your and all the others' replies.

mounted in binmode:
mount -s -b -f c:/cygwin/home/username/.cpan /home/username/.cpan

Hi Greg,
thanks for your reply.
Probably your file got damaged, I think.
yes, but reproducably for all CPAN mirrors...
Testing 02packages.details.txt.gz with gzip -t reports:
gzip: 02packages.details.txt.gz: invalid compressed data--format violated
Same with 03modlist.data.gz.

I see here that the file begins this way:
Hi guys,
I updated my cygwin installation and obviously got a new Perl version,
which means I need to reinstall a lot of modules again...
When I fire up
perl -MCPAN -e shell;
