Well, Im not sure whats going on. Installing the libiconv2 package worked for that error, but why is it looking for it?? I never installed that one in the first place. Below is the bash -x -l output and the >ERR_MSG< is where the error occured

I noticed that /usr/bin was not recreated in the new install. and trying to start tcsh i get an error on cygcurses6.dll now, which i could not find on that package page. So what gives here, why wasnt the complete delete and reinstall not installing the core components??? and what was not deleted that needs to be? Anyway, I am going to try and remove everything again, download everything fresh and try a reinstall again. Comments or any insight would be nice. thanks... ~ Terry 757 581-5981 AIM/Yahoo: lv2bounce ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christopher Faylor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, December 21, 2002 1:55 AM Subject: Re: Reinstall - oops.. > On Sat, Dec 21, 2002 at 01:31:38AM -0500, Terry wrote: > > > >ok, i was installing Cygwin on my comp at home and was installing ipc when i > >went to remove a tmp install dir and typed > >> rm -rf /usr/ > > > >DOH! damn fingers work faster then my brain.... > > > >anyway, i went and did a complete reinstall and when I opened up a new bash > >window i get an error, the shell is looking for a file called cygiconv.dll > >in the path... > > I assume it's cygiconv-2.dll. bash doesn't rely on this file, though.
