The purpose of cygcheck is to determine what has been installed on your system. It's hard to conceive of a situation where you ran setup.exe, it seemed to successfully install the package, and nothing showed up in /bin. If I had to guess, I'd say that you had just installed the -src packages somehow and not the binary, possibly by clicking on the source column and not on the "Skip" column when you ran setup.exe. I don't know if there is a problem with cygcheck.exe where it is reporting a binary package being installed when it isn't, but that's my educated guess. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
