In cygwin usr/bin folder is missing
I have installed Cygwin and once I started to build a C++ file in Visual Studio Code with Cygwin GCC, I noticed that it uses some usr/bin
folder. Then I went to check what is in Cygwin usr/bin
folder. But I noticed that there is no bin folder here. But there is a sbin
folder here. Is it any glitch or normal?
Solution 1:
$ mount
D:/cygwin64/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto)
D:/cygwin64/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto)
D:/cygwin64 on / type ntfs (binary,auto)
On cygwin the directory /bin
and /usr/bin
are the same,
similar for /lib
and /usr/lib
