bash: cygpath: command not found

bash: cygpath: command not found

[jairo supelano]

Hi, i require to use cygpath, and this is supposed to come with standard 
installation. i get this message, first i tried default installation, tough i 
may have changed install defaults in the first try (i dont remember if i changed 
them in the first try), but if i did, it was to add new packgages (bitmap libs, 
gcc, xml and i believe something else but i dont rememebr what; i did this 
because i am trying to run a project from source forge, and it said it required 
those libs -except from gcc and opnegl, which i added by my account-). the thing 
is, starting from scratch, i did not remove any defaults from the default 
installation, though during installation, i got messages that some packages had 
not a correct dm5 checksum, and it asked me if i wanted to skip those, and i 
said yes (i assumed that if those packages were skipped or installed 
incorrectly, they would be updated the next time i runned the setup program), so 
anyway, i believe i downloaded the first time from 'http:idaho.edu' (once again, 
i am not sure), or whatever, in any case i need that utility and there is no 
cygpath in my installation. so i try to run setup, and i tell it to 'reinstall' 
the packages i believe may have something to do with cygpath, or that may 
contain cygpath, including 'admin', 'utils', 'system', 'shells' and others, i 
believe i told it to install 'utils' in full, but cygpath still does not appear 
anywhere. i googled 'cygwin cygpath not found',a nd there was a thread in a 
postgres list about the cygpath.exe something, and in the thread they suggest to 
reinstall from scratch. in my case, or in any case that would be nasty; i 
installed many packages, i dont remember wich ones, and i dont want to do this 
all again, and if i try to install from scratch again, and the mirror also has 
bad checksums or bad packages (no way to tell until the install is in progress), 
then i am wasting my time, so is there any way to download the cygpath.exe and 
write in the folder manually, and if so, where do i download it and where do i 
copy it? (windows xp, installing for all users)

tnx

If you're getting messages about checksum problems, you're either having a
problem with a particular mirror or your connection.  If it's the former,
try a different mirror.  If it's the latter, try a better connection. ;-)

<http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=cygpath.exe> tells you the
package that cygpath comes in.  Given that it's in the package with the
Cygwin DLL, if you're not getting that package installed, you don't have a
valid Cygwin installation yet.  Your best bet is to resolve the installation
problem first.

Please, next time, use paragraphs (blank lines) to split your text into
smaller and more readable chunks of relevant information.  If necessary,
set your mailer to not send enriched or HTML text, but just plain text.

Thank you.
