Thank you Marc for your help! It seems that your tools
rebaseall peflagsall both run from a plain ash with no other Cygwin process running solve this problem for both, Cygwin 1.5 and Cygwin 1.7! Indeed I think the "peflagsall" might have been the magic one, as I am running through remote desktop connection on another machine! (And this sets the flag "tsaware" which seems to be related...) So after running the above two commands I do not get any such error any more. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
