Question

I installed a minimal version of cygwin, but i now need to install the rm command.

Which cygwin package contains the rm command ?

Answer 1

You must have a very minimal Cygwin install. rm is usually contained inside coreutils.

Answer 2

It should be in the coreutils package. I haven't used Cygwin in a long time, but if it hasn't updated to coreutils yet, try finding a fileutils package. That is rather dated though, considering the fact that the pages on the GNU site for the fileutils, sh-utils/shellutils and textutils packages all refer you to the coreutils page.
