I have downloaded the cygwin with all the defaults, plus a few extra packages to a local directory, then copied this to another machine and installed. - (Thanks to those who helped to get a minimal install, it is now 80 MB)
I am getting the error message: cygintl-8.dll was not found, when I click on the cygwin icon on the desktop. I have looked for this on the forums, and it seems to be quite a common occurrence, and the advice usually seems to be, go and get the missing dll and install it by hand. Well of course I could do this, but I'm slightly worried about what else may be missing - it doesn't increase my confidence in cygwin. It appears to be a bug in the installer, perhaps what is needed is for the installer to verify that the package contains what it is supposed to contain. Does anyone have a solution to this, other than go and get the missing file? - I need an reliable installation process that works. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
