No clear idea how it happened other than thoughtless fiddling, but I have
deleted the file /etc/setup/installed.db. This was for an incomplete system
tailored to size and specific requirements, so it would be a real pain to
have to recreate it from scratch. Instead, can I recover installed.db? I've
tried cygcheck -c but this clearly requires installed.db in the first place,
to provide its output. I really really don't want to have to start again ...
Thanks. Fergus
