I'd suggest that if you have a question or comment about setup it would be a good idea to send a message with a specific subject rather than trying to use this thread.

If the other setup.exe maintainers are at all similar to me they have given up on this particular thread a while ago. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
