I updated (download and installed) several packages. After that : 2. I had the following problem. When a Cygwin window started the message box appeared : ------ grep.exe : Unable To Locale DLL ------ The dynamic link library cygpcre.dll could not be found in the specified patch ... ---------------------------------------------------- The same message box appeared when I ran 'grep' or 'more' utilities. I found out that : 2.1) Output of 'cygcheck -c' contained the row -------------------------------- libpcre 4.1-1 Incomplete -------------------------------- 2.2) However, 'libpcre' was contained in the chooser window in View 'Up To Date'. 3. What I did was : 3.1. I uninstalled 'libpcre' via View 'Up To Date' (I changed "Keep" to "Uninstall"). 3.2. After that, I downloaded 'libpcre' from Internet and installed it from Local Directory. Now I have no problem with 'libpcre'. P.S. But I have a similar problem with 'cygkpathsea' When I open the Cygwin window I have got the following error message box: ------ kpsewhich.exe - Unable to locate DLL ----- The dynamic link library cygkpathsea-3-3-7 dll could not be found in the specified patch ... ------------------------------------------------------- However, I don't know which package contains 'cygkpathsea'.
