Do you have to gunzip it first? I just did an upgrade to cygwin, and
it appears I have other issues as well. From both DOS and bash, I
type
which gunzip.exe
and I get
/usr/bin/gnunzip.exe
I type mount, and I get the following:
bash-2.05b$ mount
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts on /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts type system (binmode)
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (textmode)
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (textmode)
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin on / type system (textmode)
c: on /cygdrive/c type user (textmode,noumount)
I change directories to h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\bin, and there is no
gunzip.exe. That's curious. I now see that gunzip.exe is there but
the directory listing hid it, and it was 19 bytes in size and was
marked a system file.
