cygpath, cygcheck not working

cygpath, cygcheck not working

[Tod]

I just ran an update and now I can't get either of these two programs to 
display anything.  I execute them and get nothing back.  I tried getting 
out of X (I use WindowMaker) to see if that was an issue but the bare 
bones console has the same result.  Any ideas?


Thanks.

Did the setup program tell you to reboot? If it did, did you reboot?
What does "uname -a" print?

You can try downloading the dependency walker from
http://www.dependencywalker.com/ and using it on cygcheck.exe to see
if any DLLs are missing.

Yes, I have rebooted.

Magically cygcheck started working so I ran it against cygpath.  All the 
necessary dlls seem to be available.


Thanks - Tod
