Hi, this is more like an observation an not a problem: in the past I noticed some third party applications compiled against Cygwin that wouldn't because of missing dependencies/DLLs. This was quite obvious as I got a big pop-up saying something like "cannot find cygwhatever- x.y.dll". Then I could look for the package containing the DLL and everything was fine.
This seems to have changed as nowadays applications just silently return without any visible error. I have to run "strace app" to see the same error I used to see without strace. Is there some kind of "API change" or is it mere coincidence?
