hi team,
As cygwin is a rolling distribution you can consider
http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/timemachine.html#AHEM
for an installation frozen in time.

Maybe I'm missing something because I'm confused why Marco is suggesting
timemachine when setup.exe still offers version 2.6.0-1. Just click on
the package in the New column until it shows your version, then proceed
with the installation.

Hi Ken,
two reasons:
- he could need to install again sometime in the future,
and than going back will not work.
- some packages could use new features added by 2.6.1
and it will be a mess to understand which packages must be
downgraded.
Regards
Marco
