Good afternoon,

                                   I have been a user of CYGWIN for many years.  I have a full (everything) installation (see article 2.12 of the FAQ).

                                   I update my installation every day (completely, see article 2.12), so this is the reason I know the problem I am reporting is very recent (a few days). This problem appeared on my two PCs. Also, just to make sure, I completely removed CYGWIN yesterday on one of the PCs and re-installed it from scratch : the problem still persists after that so this is clearly a new bug.

                                   If you want to know, both my PCs run version 20H2 of Windows Pro (the upgrade was made 3 weeks ago, so that is not the cause of the problem).

                                   The problem is the following : when I update Cygwin, it now blocks (after two or three hours of being blocked there, I just stop the procedure ...) at this stage :

                                           Running ...

                                           z/Perpetual

                                           /etc/postinstall/zp_man-db-update-index.dash

                                   The contents of the setup.log.runX...  is :

  ManDB index update starting...
  ... ManDB index update complete.
/etc/postinstall/zp_man-db-update-index.dash: 14: exec: 3: not found

                                  It is probably not related to my problem, but the contents of  mandb-index.log is not clean (this is the log after a fresh clean installation) :
