I'm using a freshly downloaded copy of https://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe, which reports itself to be "Setup.exe version 2.884 (64 bit)".
I use http://mirrors.kernel.org Every time I run the setup program, it reports: Cygwin Setup The current ini file is from a newer version of setup-x86_64.exe. If you have any trouble installing, please download a fresh version from http://www.cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe. I've confirmed that the ini file at http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/x86_64/setup.ini contains: release: cygwin arch: x86_64 setup-timestamp: 1524946592 setup-version: 2.891 I was able to find https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.891.x86_64.exe via a Google search, which works around the problem, but the underlying problem is still there: the default setup program is inconsistent with the setup.ini files on the mirrors. I've been having this problem for several weeks (I don't know exactly when it started). I've checked several other mirror sites, and the setup.ini for all the ones I've checked also specify version 2.891. If I ignore the warning messages, the discrepancy doesn't seem to cause any problems. I'm using Windows 10. -- 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
