It can only do that if the inetutils-server package *has* been installed, because the file etc/postinstall/inetutils-server.sh is part of the inetutils-server package. Setup can't run a script which isn't installed. > The script then > failed because the getent package, which I presume is a prerequisite > for inetutils-server but not inetutils, had not been installed. I hope > this information is useful to you. The getent package is in category Base. The packages from category Base are always installed by setup, and for good reason. If you deinstalled it forcefully, it is not the packages fault. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
