I have experienced problems in the past because some of the texmf data files got the wrong ownership/permissions on them during install. http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-03/msg00454.html I think this happened as a result of me installing cygwin initially as one username (but nonetheless using the "for all users...." option) and then updating it later using a different username. If those files had bad ownership, deleting them and reinstalling would be expected to fix it. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
