Hi folks,
A new version of Setup, release 2.867, has been uploaded to
https://cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe (32 bit version)
https://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe (64 bit version)
The changes compared to 2.864 are mostly not visible:
- There's one fix to the output when mistyping a command line option.
- More importantly, Setup now understands SHA512 checksums additionally
to MD5 checksums. We're going to switch to using SHA512 checksums in
the setup.ini files in a couple of weeks and this requires all of you
to use the newer Setup version.
Please send bug reports, as usual, to the public mailing list
cygwin AT cygwin DOT com.
Have fun,
Corinna
I was just wondering, will you be dropping the md5.sum files from the
package directories at the same time? I'd be happy to see them
disappear from the mirrors - they're an internal thing, right? Just
this week I noticed that cygwin64-gcc-4.8.3-4-src.tar.xz's md5 checksum
in its md5.sum file was incorrect (but its md5 in setup.ini was of
course correct).
Though I'm probably the only person on the planet who cares. :-) It's
just an idle question.
Regards,
luke
