Following an update of the packages I have installed, multiple programs are
failing silently when executed from the shell, especially "man" and "wget".
If I run them under strace, I get a pop-up window stating "The procedure
entry mbrtoc32 could not be located in the dynamic link library ..." For
man the library is "cygman-2-12-1.dll". For wget the library is "wget.exe".
I assume this means that something didn't update properly and that
reinstalling one package would solve, but I don't see any indication in the
logs of a failure. I'd rather not reinstall everything to fix the problem,
if possible.
Any thoughts on how where I should look?
Upgrade to at least Cygwin 3.5.0 - current stable is 3.5.3 - you are on 3.4.10
API minor 345 - Corinna added uchar.h with those C 2011 and 2023 Unicode
character functions in strfuncs.cc last August in API minor 347 and 348 released
in Cygwin 3.5.0 this February - see announcement in:
