FWIW, I encountered this as well. I'm trying to get a handle on another problem, and as one attempt I tried a fresh (zap all Cygwin registry entries, rename my Cygwin directory and packages repository), minimal (base plus emacs and enough X to support it) install. emacs failed to start, giving a Windows dialog box with the same complaint about libICE's unavailability. The paths looked OK, and after a bit of thrashing around I went back to the old installation. I'll repeat the minimalist effort if there's any additional information you'd like to hear about, like the cygcheck output therefrom. -- Best wishes, Max Hyre -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
