Cygwin setup versions are 1.5.17-1 and 1.5.15-1. I have a screen shot of all the errors up if you want to see that showing it on mhash.
If you state that /usr/share/mc/syntax/xml.syntax is not in the mhash package then how, if I unselect the mhash package, does it install just fine on both versions? I am not trying to question you, it is just confusing to me. Cygcheck, I have not used that to tell you the truth. Just let me know what you need and I can try and get it for you. --- Reini Urban <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Robert schrieb: > > It looks as though mhash is causing the problem. > I > > did another full install and unselected mhash and > it > > installed just fine.
