64-bit Cygwin - Missing packages and mintty issue

[Bogdan]

Hi,

I've just installed the 64-bit Cygwin port but encountered a few problems.

First of all, there seems to be a problem with the mintty package. While it's 
marked as installed in the setup, /bin/mintty does not exist so I cannot fire 
up the terminal. I suspect the package has not been installed.

Secondly, at least the following packages are missing (they don't even show up 
in the setup's database): inetutils, pax, time, and (according to someone else, 
I haven't checked) lftp. I suspect others are missing as well.

Cheers,
Bogdan

Wrong mailing list.  Go back to http://cygwin/lists.html and read it
carefully.
