Pango failure


Now I remember why I referred all my students to MinGW <g>.

Upon completion of the installation, I got this "Postinstall script error":
  Package libpango1.0_0
      pango1.0.sh exit code 1
and my Cygwin shell fails to launch, declaring that mintty cannot be found.

The relevant part of the setup.log.full says:
....
2013/02/23 11:24:17 running: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --norc --noprofile "/etc/postinstall/pango1.0.sh"
/etc/postinstall/pango1.0.sh: line 1: /etc/pango/pango.modules: No such file or directory
2013/02/23 11:24:17 abnormal exit: exit code=1
....


As it happens, not only is there no "pango.modules" file present, but there is
also no /etc/pango directory to put it in. I searched the entire log file for any reference to /etc/pango and there was none.


The install was "Default" with the following additions:

Archive:
    zip
Database:
    libsqlite3-dev
    libsqlite3_0
Devel:
    <Install all>
Editors:
    emacs-<all>
    gvim
    vim
    vim-common
    xxd
Graphics:
    freeglut
    gnuplot
Interpreters:
    guile
    lua
    m4
    perl
    python
    python3
    ruby
    ruby-tcltk
    tcl
    tcl-tk
Math:
    octave

I will try again with the references to X11 components, which should get me over the hump, but I'd like to get this resolved, if possible. Any suggestions?
