That is only possible then if you've tried some manual rebase and have these DLL still recorded in /etc/rebase.db.* -- in which case you should be able to recover by doing a full rebase (which removes the existing rebase database as the first step). > To be careful and clear, the _first_ time the problem happened (i.e., > Windows became unusable after a reboot), was after a normal run of > setup-x86_64 which updated Cygwin to 2.5.2. Again, given what you say about the content of /var/cache/rebase this is only possible if you've previously added those DLL to the rebase database.
