Hmm, we should really try and merge this thread with the other ongoing threads about this exact same problem! BTW, in case just deleting it doesn't work - and when I suggested it to Wei http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2008-01/msg00354.html it didn't work, I just posted a recipe to regenerate the list file from the tarball in your local package storage dir: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2008-01/msg00419.html It's also possible that the tarball in the package directory might be corrupted and this somehow causes the problem, in which case we would expect to see an error message during the attempt to regenerate the lst.gz file. 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/
