The snippet of code you quoted above belongs to an old version of base-files. With your update, a new base-files package should have been installed. Please check this with: $ cygcheck -c base-files It should report version 4.0-6. The fact that /etc/profile wasn't automatically updated shows that you manually modified it. Please check if the new version (find it at /etc/defaults/etc/profile) solves the problem for you. If it does, you can add your customizations to it afterwards. Ensure you backup your files before and please report back if you succeeded. --=20 Huella de clave primaria: 0FDA C36F F110 54F4 D42B D0EB 617D 396C 448B 31EB --wac7ysb48OaltWcw Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAk2ZqiMACgkQYX05bESLMet7EQCeLAes+wXkG2RzOjsQ7k8aKnr8 4s0AnAhreWAk1YMfagFUItKK1cS0KLdH =Dvu2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --wac7ysb48OaltWcw--
