The package does have a wrong permissions mask. That may have prevented the execution of preremove/postinstall scripts, but I can't reproduce it. I have downgraded to 4.0-6 and upgraded again without failures, but this cygwin is installed by an Admin user system-wide. I'll release a package correcting the permissions ASAP. -- Huella de clave primaria: AD8F BDC0 5A2C FD5F A179 60E7 F79B AB04 5299 EC56
