This package contains this file: /etc/preremove/texlive-collection-basic.sh
which in turn calls: /usr/libexec/update_tlpdb which is a Perl script. I understand that "texlive-collection-basic" requires "perl_base", but if a user removed Perl first then uninstallation of texlive would fail. Perhaps "update_tlpdb" could be rewritten as a shell script. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
