Ive found this a few times but I'll give one example with the kdelibs package
When I search for the kdelibs I get this: $ apt-cygports -u find kdelibs Working directory is /cygdrive/c/temp/cygwin Mirror is ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/ Searching for installed packages matching kdelibs: kdelibs-data kdelibs-devel kdelibs4 Searching for installable packages matching kdelibs: kdelibs kdelibs-bin kdelibs-data kdelibs-devel kdelibs4 However when I go to install kdelibs it always fails: $ apt-cygports -u install kdelibs Working directory is /cygdrive/c/temp/cygwin Mirror is ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/ Installing kdelibs Found package kdelibs basename: missing operand Try `basename --help' for more information. --2009-09-07 17:27:50-- ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports// => `.listing' Resolving sourceware.org... 209.132.176.174 Connecting to sourceware.org|209.132.176.174|:21... connected.
