Building Python with Tcl/Tk on Cygwin_NT-5.1

[Dean N. Williams]

Dear Jason,

    I installed Cygwin on another Windows XP platform, this time I 
selected "ALL" for the setup installation. Everything appears to have 
been install just fine, except for when I do the "rebaseall" command. I 
am receiving the following error messages when I do the "rebaseall" 
command at the prompt:

$ rebaseall
/usr/bin/rebaseall: line 70: [: too many arguments
/usr/bin/rebaseall: line 75: [: too many arguments
/usr/bin/rebaseall: line 94: $TmpFile: ambiguous redirect
cannot read /cygdrive/c/Documents


    On my laptop installation everything works just fine. What is the 
difference?

    Thanks in advance and best regards,
                Dean
