thanks for the update. I decided to remove cygwin again and reinstall
with the same package that I downloaded for my laptop. This worked.
The difference being that it was downloaded from a different source.
The source that I had the problems with came from 'cygwin.osuosl.org'.
I don't know how these get propagated out to the mirrors but it seems to
me that this site is missing some packages. When I select packages to
install I select everything. I did not have any problems with the
mirrors.kernel.org download.
thanks for your help...
consider this closed from my end.
Just having problems with 'pymssql' now :)
