First of all, now the problem is solved.
========================================
Here is a brief story of the problem.
1. I updated (download and installed) several packages.
After that :
2. I had the following problem.
When a Cygwin window started the message box appeared :
------ grep.exe : Unable To Locale DLL ------
The dynamic link library cygpcre.dll could not be found
in the specified patch ...
----------------------------------------------------
The same message box appeared when I ran 'grep' or 'more' utilities.
I found out that :
2.1) Output of 'cygcheck -c' contained the row
--------------------------------
libpcre 4.1-1 Incomplete
--------------------------------
2.2) However, 'libpcre' was contained in the chooser window in View 'Up To Date'.
3. What I did was :
3.1. I uninstalled 'libpcre' via View 'Up To Date' (I changed "Keep" to "Uninstall").
3.2. After that, I downloaded 'libpcre' from Internet and installed it from Local Directory.
Now I have no problem with 'libpcre'.
P.S. But I have a similar problem with 'cygkpathsea'
When I open the Cygwin window I have got the following error message box:
------ kpsewhich.exe - Unable to locate DLL -----
The dynamic link library cygkpathsea-3-3-7 dll could not be found
in the specified patch ...
-------------------------------------------------------
However, I don't know which package contains 'cygkpathsea'.
