I suppose, with latest Corinna's modifications to the ways `id' lookup the data, this message would go away naturally. I don't know, if the changes are available in a public snapshot, though. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@yandex.ru) 27.02.2014, <23:13> Sorry for my terrible english... -- 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
