$ cygcheck-dep  diffutils

anyone seeing the same ?

Hello, Marco.
I don't.

ok so something is different between my machine and yours

probably on the creation of /dev/fd/xx for bash redirection


$ cygcheck-dep  diffutils
This command just downloads a fresh version of the setup.ini file and exits.
Please see cygcheck-dep --help if you  mean to get some dependency information on the diffutils package.


also the the other ways does not work

$ cygcheck-dep  -n diffutils
/usr/bin/cygcheck-dep: line 345: /dev/fd/62: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/cygcheck-dep: line 470: /dev/fd/62: No such file or directory
 diffutils: package does not exist


$ cygcheck-dep  -s diffutils
/usr/bin/cygcheck-dep: installed.db file is not exist or is not readable
/usr/bin/cygcheck-dep: (diffutils)

of course the file exists and it is fine as cygcheck showed.

$ ls -l /etc/setup/installed.db
-rw-r--r-- 1 marco Administrators 42034 Feb  1 15:20 /etc/setup/installed.db


Adding
ln -s /proc/self/fd /dev/fd

temporary solved the issue, but I am not sure it is the right way.

Nice tool, time to make some cleaning on old pruned packages
