Oh, and not that it really matters, but the message box you got is because by installing everything, you included the avahi package, and setuo.exe is telling you that unless you do not also have a third-party Apple package installed (Bonjour) it isn’t going to do anything useful. But you don’t actually *want* Avahi, so its error message is confusing and annoying, because you aren’t going to actually do anything about it. This is why you don’t go telling Cygwin to install *everything*. You don’t want everything. -- 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
