It was most likely the scenario which we outlined a couple of weeks ago, but was not fixed yet. Install latest libpq5 + uninstall old libpq4, which deleted bin/cygpq.dll which is used by both packages. reinstalling libpq5-8.2.9 should fix it. The other deps should be correct AFAIK. The fix is to rename the libpq5 and libpq4 packages to libpq. I'll fix it with the upcoming 8.3.x packages. -- Reini Urban http://phpwiki.org/ http://murbreak.at/ -- 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/
