Warning: cygwin1.dll not found on your path
this is curious
It’s happening because he’s not running cygcheck under Cygwin, since Cygwin won’t start on his system. Hence, c:\cygwin\bin isn’t in the path.
This is also why it skips all the package checks, and why it complains about things like awk not found.
And it is also why the output is not very useful.
There is no need for cygwin\bin to in the path, but
cygcheck should be run there.
