(I've looked briefly for relevant discussion here and on cygwin-apps and seen none -- sorry if this is already known.) According to http://www.cygwin.com/packages/, the gcc package contains 72192 2001-06-17 22:02:45 usr/bin/c++.exe 35328 2001-06-17 22:02:45 usr/bin/c++filt.exe 72704 2001-06-17 22:02:45 usr/bin/cpp.exe 0 2001-06-17 22:02:45 usr/bin/g++.exe link to usr/bin/c++.exe If you look in setup.log.full I suspect you'll see that extraction of g++.exe failed. I suspect current setup.exe is not dealing with links in tarball packages correctly. One of my users alerted me to this problem in my prc-tools package today. Files listed as "link to [previous file in tarball]" were not being extracted by setup.exe 2.194.2.15, and would be absent from the resulting installation. OTOH setup.exe 2.125.2.10 given the same tarball extracted them correctly.
