Hi folks,

Consider this command line transcript:
--------------------------------------
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 hostname 1.7.1(0.218/5/3) 2009-12-07 11:48 i686 Cygwin

$ cygcheck -c cygport
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
cygport              0.9.80-1       OK

$ pwd
/home/steve/My Documents/bglibs

$ ls
bglibs-1.106-1.cygport

$ cygport bglibs-1.106-1.cygport download
/usr/bin/cygport: line 444: [: /home/steve/My: binary operator expected
/usr/bin/cygport: line 450: /home/steve/My: No such file or directory

--------------------------------------
Workaround: Move the working dir to a path not containing spaces.

Or even simpler, cd to the DOS variant of the filename, try for instance:

cd /home/steve/MYDOCU~1/bglibs

(you need to check what the actual DOS path equivalent is on your system)

This has worked quite well for me so far (and I changed my $HOME to not contain spaces, but use the DOS name, too).
