Today, it forced me to upgrade again, so I tried a little further&#8230; and finally rolled back.

A missing DDL messages seems to come from my past memories, as well as DB2. No problem, I don&#8217;t need that. Upgrades is also a good occasion to cleanup.</p>\n<p>Then I tried to run my demo environment (several cygwin windows multiplexed my tmux and controled by Eventghost that I con control with my Pebble&#8230;)<br />\nthe only issue is that mintty opens several windows.<br />\n<a href=\"https://www.dbi-services.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/04/CaptureWX003.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://www.dbi-services.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/04/CaptureWX003.jpg\" alt=\"CaptureWX003\" width=\"1600\" height=\"864\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3689\" /></a><br />\nthis is not blocking, and can probably be fixed.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.dbi-services.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/04/CaptureWX002.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:right\" src=\"https://www.dbi-services.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/04/CaptureWX002.jpg\" alt=\"CaptureWX002\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3699\" /></a><br />\nThen there is VirtualBox.
