error on installing new packages for the third-party cygwin

[Liu Haibin <liu dot haibin at gmail dot com>]

Hi,

I'm using a product which integrates cygwin. I wanted to install a new
package into this cygwin but after installation, I got an error
message when I ran the newly installed package.

"The procedure entry point __getreent could not be located in the
dynamic link library cygwin1.dll"

I googled and found that it could be multiple cygwin1.dll's problem.
But I found only one cygwin1.dll on my computer, which is installed by
the product I'm using.

By the way, I just downloaded a setup.exe and changed the root
directory to the product's cygwin's root to install the new package.

Any idea what went wrong. Could it be that installing a new package
will install another cygwin1.dll?


Regards,
Haibin
