R: Odd No Package message.
--- Mar 16/11/10, Brian Wilson ha scritto: I've been following several of the recent message threads dealing with setup user issues. Knowing that I've had a few of the symptoms reported I did a search and found about 26 *.new files in my cygwin instance. I decided that the best solution was to remove the *.new files, reboot my system into safe mode with networking and try to reinstall all applications. This cleaned up a lot of issues; however I now have a persistent message when I do updates: Package: No package passwd-grp.sh exit code 1 I don't see a package named passwd-grp or anything similar (hence the No package message I presume). Is this an obsolete package? How do I get rid of it is in the base-passwd http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=base-passwd%2Fbase-passwd-3.1-1grep=passwd-grp.sh as only postinstall script etc/postinstall/passwd-grp.sh this message? Cygcheck output attached. My system is Windows XP SP3 latest patches, running Apache 2 and sshd under Cygwin. Please note I have McAfee Total Protection, not Zone Alarm as reported (never had ZA on my system). Your sage advise would be much appreciated or great oracles of Cygwin. :) Sincerely, Brian S.

Re: Odd No Package message.
My bad; and my apologies for the breach of etiquette. My thanks also to those who gave me pointers on how to correct this issue. Sincerely, Brian S.
