For reasons which are now obscure to me, I had set up an NTFS junction point from /var (c:\cygwin\var) to some other partition. Could have done it with mount, but I didn't. Just today after running setup.exe and getting cygwin-1.5.7-1 and a few other things, I found that /var was now an ordinary directory with the only contents the subdirectory cache (with empty subdirectory man) and the subdirectory log (with setup.log and setup.log.full). Luckily my mail spool et al were still intact at the old junction target. Can anyone divine what happened? Cygcheck output attached, in case it is useful. Robert
