Is there any way to stop setup program from messing up NTFS permissions? I don't like how cygwin works with NTFS permissions and therefore it is disabled through /etc/fstab, but setup ignores it and keeps destroying inherited permissions and replacing them with custom ones every time it installs something.
I can't vouch for the "don't do it part", but /etc/fstab is ignored because setup.exe doesn't link against cygwin1.dll, thus isn't a Cygwin application in the technical sense (although it is of course essential for Cygwin as a project or installation).
