PuTTYcyg doesn't work "out of the box" on a fresh/minimal Cygwin installation about puttycyg

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I've tried to duplicate the problem:

1. Install Cygwin 1.7 (cygwin1.dll 1.7.1-1), selecting no additional packages.
2. Run PuTTYcyg 20091228.
It works.

When you say "it didn't work", what do you mean exactly?

If anyone can duplicate the conditions, please reply here and I will fix it.

Uninstalling all possible packages while heeding the warnings from setup about 
an 
unusable system (this is a fun exercise) results in only the following packages 
left 
installed:

base-cygwin base-cygwin-2.0-1.tar.bz2 0
base-passwd base-passwd-3.1-1.tar.bz2 0
bash bash-3.2.49-23.tar.bz2 0
cygwin cygwin-1.7.1-1.tar.bz2 0
libintl8 libintl8-0.17-11.tar.bz2 0
libreadline7 libreadline7-6.0.3-2.tar.bz2 0
texinfo texinfo-4.13-3.tar.bz2 0
_update-info-dir _update-info-dir-00839-1.tar.bz2 0

PuTTYcyg still works under these conditions, although various startup scripts 
refer to 
utilities which do not exist (id, tr, sed, find, uname).
