Running Cygwin 2.5.2 on Windows 10 (which just forced the Anniversary update on me, various minor irritations to be overcome), I see the following: > cygcheck python27.dll Found: C:\WINDOWS\system32\python27.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\python27.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNELBASE.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\win32u.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcrt.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\SECHOST.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHELL32.dll cygcheck: track_down: could not find MSVCR90.dll But not surprisingly /c/Python27/python runs just fine, and both strace and depends [1] report that the MSVCR90 dependency is satisfied from C:\Windows\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft.vc90.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.9247_none_08e394a1a83e212f\msvcr90.dll Just a minor irritation, but I'm curious if there's an underlying reason, or it's a bug. ht [1] http://www.dependencywalker.com/ -- Henry S.
