A new setup release candidate is available at:

 https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.933.x86_64.exe (64 bit version)

Please test, and report any problems here.

Changes compared to 2.932:

- Initial support for mirrors.lst instructions to update the selected mirror site URL when we've been notified it's changing

(e.g. ftp.acc.umu.se is now known as mirror.accum.se. Ideally, setup would be able to update the selected URL for the user, so that no manual intervention is required when the old name stops working.)

- Remove the anomalous and unwanted behavior of dropping back into attended mode when no package repository sites are selected.

Instead report an error and terminate with a non-zero exit code.

- Better handling of DPI changes (when moving the application window between monitors with different DPI values, or changing the monitor DPI)

Thanks to Yang Yulin and Li Xun for patches.

- Don't skip all remaining transactions on a package lookup error

Addresses: https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2024-June/256147.html (partially)

- Updated translations, and add a new Japanese translation (contributed by 武田洋幸)

- The toolchain used to build setup has been updated

- The executable is signed (using my personal IV certificate) to avoid an "Unknown Publisher" warning.
