Subject:	Re: ncftp current release won't run - missing CYGREADLINE5.DLL

Sorry Robert,
I lost the last word on the subject line when I posted the email you
read.

It turns out, no you can't just re run setup.exe on an already installed
cygwin
and expect it to work. It might delete a dll or two for you due to an
install bug.

The faq offers the solution of hunting down which packages contain the
dll files
you are missing and re installing them.

I found it much easier last night to just wipe out the old cygwin
install, and
local download storage (where you ran setup from) completely and doing
a full install.

The other thing to watch for is that a default install does not install
everything,
so if you want everything, click on the little arrow loop icon on the
"all" category
in setup and change it to install all..

Here's the details of the thread..
