Upon completion of the installation, I got this "Postinstall script error": Package libpango1.0_0 pango1.0.sh exit code 1 and my Cygwin shell fails to launch, declaring that mintty cannot be found. The relevant part of the setup.log.full says: .... 2013/02/23 11:24:17 running: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --norc --noprofile "/etc/postinstall/pango1.0.sh" /etc/postinstall/pango1.0.sh: line 1: /etc/pango/pango.modules: No such file or directory 2013/02/23 11:24:17 abnormal exit: exit code=1 .... As it happens, not only is there no "pango.modules" file present, but there is also no /etc/pango directory to put it in. I searched the entire log file for any reference to /etc/pango and there was none. The install was "Default" with the following additions: Archive: zip Database: libsqlite3-dev libsqlite3_0 Devel: Editors: emacs- gvim vim vim-common xxd Graphics: freeglut gnuplot Interpreters: guile lua m4 perl python python3 ruby ruby-tcltk tcl tcl-tk Math: octave I will try again with the references to X11 components, which should get me over the hump, but I'd like to get this resolved, if possible.
