Hi, During the course of my installing I also quickly discovered, that I only had a very rudimentary set of packages installed.
The FAQ, under "What packages should I install" says: "Just get everything, if you have room for it." If this is the recommendation, then why isn't it easy to do? On previous setup versions there was a Full/Part button (See e.g. http://cygwin.com/xfree/docs/ug/cygwin-downloading.html) so it was possible to get a full install easily. This is aparently no longer possible. Instead I had to double-click on each individual non-selected package to get it. This is an error prone process, especially when there are different versions of some of the packages. Is there still a way to easily get a complete installation? I could not figure out how to do it. I could not find answers to any of these questions, and I suspect they are worthy for the documentation or FAQ. (But then of course _my_ questions are _always_ worthy of that, aren't they? :-) Hello -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
