[UPDATED] 'dircolors' command does nothing

The mentioned problem happens only when TERM = cygwin. If I set TERM to
linux, dircolors works again. Could this be a termcap issue?

TIA,

Subject: 'dircolors' command does nothing


Hi,

I've sync'ed my installation with the current distribution today, and
'dircolors' doesn't seem to work anymore. Typing it at the prompt does
nothing:

~: dircolors -b
LS_COLORS='';
export LS_COLORS

If I try it with a file name, nothing happens either:

~: dircolors -p > aaa
~: dircolors -b aaa
LS_COLORS='';
export LS_COLORS

Anyone else experiencing this? Any hints on what it could be? BTW: 'ls'
output *is* using colors, I just cannot customize it anymore.

Best,

Andre
