If you had Cygwin processes running, cygwin1.dll was locked and could not be replaced by setup. As a result, you got newer apps installed, but tried running them with an older cygwin1.dll, which was missing some functions. > > Remark : don't forget to stop cygwin services (sshd, ...) > None was running. > > I tried another thing: I have a local package directory, where I keep all the cygwin > packages I download.

Setup uses the "replace on reboot" flag if it's unable to overwrite a file. If you reboot, your cygwin1.dll should be updated to the newer version.
