You will see in the screenshot of the cygwin installer (just before step
#6) that postgresql is selected for install. Make sure it is.

I guess either a dependancy in the grass package needs to be fixed or
the instructions have to state that more explicitly.

Thanks Hamish,

I installed postgresql. When I try to reinstall, it is marked as "Keep",
I reinstalled it but I think there is an other simple problem.
