If not, where should I ask?
setup.ini is generated by a program called "upset". The current sources are not available to the public since the program is not intended for "roll-your-own-setup.ini" and the program is not something that I want to receive patches for or questions about. Older versions of the program are probably not kicking around out they are not supported here. If you want to generate a setup.ini use genini. If you find bugs, then proposed patches will be thoughtfully considered as long as they aren't band-aids. 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
