I've had a new problem with this version, which I have been able to work around. I normally do a two stage update of Cygwin, with the second stage being running down the "Install from Local Directory" path. This was silently existing. As it turned out, it was doing so as I had an old, setup.ini from a mirror I had unintentionally selected (rather than my preferred mirror). Here's the preamble to that setup.ini: == # This file was automatically generated at 2021-09-28 15:09:17 GMT. # # If you edit it, your edits will be discarded next time the file is # generated. # # See https://sourceware.org/cygwin-apps/setup.ini.html for a description # of the format. release: cygwin arch: x86_64 setup-timestamp: 1632841757 include-setup: setup <2.878 not supported setup-minimum-version: 2.895 setup-version: 2.909 == I moved that out of the way, and then was able to proceed. I was fortunate that I acted on a hunch. Otherwise, even with -v on command line, there was nothing that could indicate to me what was causing the issue. I'm hoping that this silent exit can be fixed, to at least give an indication, via logging or pop-up or other, of what is blocking the install. -- Regards, Shaddy Baddah -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
