Sorry I wasn't clear, actually meant how do I figure out which libraries are missing? That will then allow me to use the package search to figure out which package dependency is missing. Here is the list of Cygwin DLLs in use by Perl when it is running my Perl/TK sample program. I could use some help determining which DLLs are in which package and thus missing libraries. I removed what were clearly Windows DLLs, I'm not 100% sure every DLL on this list is a Cygwin DLL: ctype.nls Cwd.dll cygcrypt-0.dll cygexpat-0.dll cygfontconfig-1.dll cygfreetype-6.dll cygperl5_8.dll cygwin1.dll Cygwin® POSIX Emulation DLL Red Hat 1005.18.0000.0000 cygX11-6.dll cygXft-2.dll cygXrender-1.dll cygz.dll Encode.dll Event.dll locale.nls sortkey.nls sorttbls.nls Tk.dll unicode.nls Thanks!
