Avast has put 2 Cygwin files in its chest

Avast has put 2 Cygwin files in its chest

[Alex Brega]

Good morning,
a customer of us has big problems with Cygwin and Avast

Infact he has returned his brand laptop bought from us due of it.
The strange thing is a dvd preinstalled file of this Lenovo laptop has been succesfully recovered from the chest,but not the 2 files cygwin (dbus-daemon.exe and ssh.exe,both in the same folder c:\cygwin\bin).They can't be recovered both in the original place and in an external folder as well.I have located the chest folder,but it's encrypted.
Would be possible for you to provide me these files (dbus-daemon.exe and ssh.exe) via mail or uploaded somewhere in order to recover them on their original folders ? 
Please give me a feedback,as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance

Regards

The installer can re-install any broken packages, including those containing ssh.exe and dbus-daemon.exe. The installer is available at <https://cygwin.com/install.html>.

Alex,
to find the package containing a given file you can use cygcheck.

$ cygcheck -p usr/bin/ssh.exe
Found 4 matches for usr/bin/ssh.exe
openssh-debuginfo-7.4p1-1 - openssh-debuginfo: Debug info for openssh 
(installed binaries and support files)
openssh-debuginfo-7.5p1-1 - openssh-debuginfo: Debug info for openssh
openssh-7.4p1-1 - openssh: The OpenSSH server and client programs 
(installed binaries and support files)
openssh-7.5p1-1 - openssh: The OpenSSH server and client programs

so you need to reinstall openssh-7.5p1-1

Similar for dbus-daemon.exe  ->  dbus-1.10.8-1

The best approach, as David suggests, is to reinstall the package with 
setup; however you can also download the package files from a mirror
and extract the file, but this could create wrong file pernmissions:

Assuming you need to the 64bit version package file:

http://ba.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/sourceware.org/cygwin/x86_64/release/openssh/openssh-7.5p1-1.tar.xz 


http://ba.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/sourceware.org/cygwin/x86_64/release/dbus/dbus-1.10.8-1.tar.xz 


use "x86" instead of "x86_64" for 32bit version

Regards
Marco
