Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2014 17:10:00 -0700 Lines: 17 Message-ID: <86lhrrh6hz.fsf@gmail.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain User-Agent: Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/24.3 (cygwin) X-IsSubscribed: yes I attempted to reinstall Cygwin on my system. The reinstall kept seeming to get locked up. So, after downloading all of Cygwin to a local directory, I moved the install directory out of the way and tried to install from (I guess) scratch. Cygwin seemed to always get stuck in the man-db.sh script during the post-install process. I'm not sure if the process was conflicting with the McAfee virus scanner. I was finally able to kill the man-db.sh script after ~12 hours of running and the installer seemed to go on and finish the installation. I'm not sure, though, what the state of the install is. 1. Is this a known problem? 2. Can I rerun the postinstall/man-db.sh script by hand? If so, how? 3. Or is there a script that I could run instead? -- David Masterson Programmer At Large -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
