This package contains this file:
/etc/preremove/texlive-collection-basic.sh
which in turn calls:
/usr/libexec/update_tlpdb
which is a Perl script. I understand that "texlive-collection-basic" requires
"perl_base", but if a user removed Perl first then uninstallation of texlive
would fail
I currently do not set the HOME environment variable. I get the
impression you're not supposed to do that. When I run a mintty shell,
it correctly puts me in "/home/", which is what I want.
I'm running into a problem with Eclipse egit, as I think it's looking
for the "HOME" environment variable

Thanks for testing.
Yes, as I wrote in [1], this isn't more a missing feature and/or missing
dependency information, than a bug in setup.

This is executable linked against cygwin1.dll. I personally call such
binaries "Cygwin programs". However it is run from Windows.

No, you send CONT to all processes (like 'pkill -CONT .'), it seems that
this gets whatever was wedged enough of a kick to retry or time out and

Hello list, I think there is information the OP can use, but no one

It doesn't use cygwin, therefore it's not related. Since this is a
cygwin mailing list, that means the first two replies were correct —
this isn't the place to discuss it.
