Hi, Package emacs-x11 depends on package dbus-x11 and should declare this, but apparently does not.
Please change package emacs-x11 so that it declares its dependency on paackage dbus-x11. Details: When doing a fresh install of Cygwin 64bit, I selected xlaunch, "emacs-x11" and a few other packages and let the dependency satisfaction mechanism do its thing. This resulted in a working X Server and XTerm, and I could start emacs without X (option -nw). However, trying to start Emacs for an Xterm without -nw yields this output (and no Emacs window): emacs process 7588: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid:\ Failed to open "/etc/machine-id": No such file or directory See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue. D-Bus not compiled with backtrace support so unable to print a backtrace Fatal error 6: AbortedAborted (core dumped) Trying this did not work because the program was missing: dbus-uuidgen > /etc/machine-id -bash: dbus-uuidgen: command not found Installing package dbus-x11 helped, Emacs starts now.
