Re: Cygwin 1.5.3 issues

Yes, they are.  You must have lost these files a while ago, but until
recently "cygcheck -c" did not check for package integrity.  I was about
to suggest reinstalling one or both of the packages, but then looked at
the package listings, and there is indeed a conflict -- *different* files
with the same name (usr/share/locale/locale.alias) appear in both
packages: gettext and texinfo.  In fact, it also appears in the [prev]
version of tar (FWIW).  Maintainers of texinfo and gettext should take
note.  Reinstalling still might help, though.

As gettext is the GNU internationalization/localization package, I would assume that locale.alias is "owned" by gettext -- so texinfo shouldn't be installing its copy...
