I'm on a fresh re-install of Win2k which still has IE 5 on it... I've applied no patches at all... Windows update scares me more than the cygwin one does ;)
Actually, the problem was solved for me by cleaning out and trashing my entire cygwin folder + package cache and reinstalling everything from scratch. Fortunately, my ISP happens to be a mirror. Now I just have to spend the next week reconfiguring everything back to the way I like it ;) --d ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 5:49 AM Subject: Memleak Apparently Attributable to Cygwin Setup > I've tried the "extreme patience" suggestion. After 2 hours of installing, Setup was still on a2ps, and total memory usage had reached ~2GB, although setup.exe was only admitting to being responsible for ~14MB of it. I think we can conclude that this hasn't worked. Next, I'll give the "latest sparkly version of Setup" suggestion a try. > > One for Dave, who seems to be experiencing exactly the same problem: did this first arise just after installing Microsoft's cumulative patch for IE6 service pack 1? This, and maybe a couple of other MS patches, are the only things I can think of that changed on my system, between Setup working and not working. > > -- > Ta > Dan > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- > -- > Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html > Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html > FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
