Which links to the last package upgrade announcement:
	https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2019-01/msg00136.html
which explains the issue: you can upgrade, with script and uuidd
unavailable for now, or downgrade to use the programs.

It's amazing what useful information you can find in package upgrade
announcements if you search for them online, or even just browse recent
cygwin-announce archives:
