As I have been experiencing the norewind behavior, I downloaded last night's snapshot, installed the cygwin1.dll, (all cygwin processes shutdown first) and then from an rxvt window I tried $ tar -t --bzip2 -f cygwin-inst-20011121.tar.bz2 tar (child): bzip2: Cannot exec: No such file or directory tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now tar: Child returned status 2 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors Interestingly I could bunzip2 and then tar extract (except for cygwin1.dll - should it be in there?) as per normal. I bzip2'ed the tar file up again quite successfully, just can't bzip2 with tar. don@DON /dosi/imports/tgz $ which bzip2 /usr/bin/bzip2 don@DON /dosi/imports/tgz $ bzip2 cygwin-inst-20011121.tar don@DON /dosi/imports/tgz Thought you'd need to know.
