The glitch I mentioned yesterday was just a pilot error owing to me using an old script from before -C and -P became separate options. > PS C:\cygwin> C:\cygwin\setup.exe --quiet-mode --no-shortcuts --root > C:\cygwin --local-package-dir C:\cygwin\LocalPackageDir --packages > netcat,procps > Starting cygwin install, version 2.680 > getUrlToStream http://mirrors.xmission.com/cygwin//setup.bz2.sig > Added manual package netcat > Changing gid back to original > Visited: 63 nodes out of 1678 while creating dependency order. So that's very odd. Can you check the cached setup.ini in your local package dir and see if it's damaged or for some other reason doesn't mention procps?
