It cropped up just recently on this very list! http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-04/threads.html#00126 To summarize the outcome of the discussion: use a mountpoint rather than a symlink. The mountpoint will overlay (and override) the then-harmless directory that setup recreates each time. Plus it's a bit faster than a symlink :) cheers, DaveK -- 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
