You are using the output of cygcheck to provide a list of filenames for ls.
But cygcheck is a win32 program, so it outputs the list of names with
dos-style CRLF line endings.
>> No such file or directoryssmtp-config
What it's actually printing here is
/usr/bin/ssmtp-config[CR, no LF]: No such file or directory.
and there is of course no such file as "/usr/bin/ssmtp-config^M". Solution:
ls -l $(cygcheck -l ssmtp | d2u)
cheers,
