It's a fresh vista ultimate 64bit install and I installed cygwin with standard options + irssi, screen and rxvt. Everything working; rxvt and even screen, but irssi crashes instantly upon execution, no matter if I use cmd or rxvt as the shell, or if I start it remotely over ssh.
The error code is 0x00000135 File: cygperl5_8.dllI assume it's 0xC0000135 and it means DLL not found. It looks like you need Perl 5.8 for irssi to run. Try to downgrade perl to 5.8.8-4 using setup.exe for now.
this sounds like a serious problem with the new perl release to me.
It breaks backward compatibility be just removing a DLL other packages
might rely upon.
If perl 5.10 is meant to be backward compatible with 5.8, shouldn't it offer a cygperl5_8.dll as well, for instance, a hardlink? However, wouldn't it be better in the long run to have a cygperl5.dll?
