Hey,

Those RPMS are compiled for a linux architecture. Cygwin is the GNU
tools (plus a few others) compiled under windows to similate a linux
environment. It can't actually execute those binaries.

You have three options:

1) Install the Windows binary. You won't be able to compile things
like DBD::mysql under Cygwin if you go this route.

2) Get the SRC RPM and build and install it. I don't know if this will
actually work under Cygwin.

3) Compile from source under Cygwin.

If I were you, I'm probably install the windows binary version. If you
need to access it from Cygwin, get the source and compile it under
windows. Before you configure it, run ./configure --help. There is an
option for client-only, or no-server or something like that. It will
give you the mysql client utilities plus a shared library for
compiling all of your linux tools against.

out.
