Yes, the perl-5.8.1 is a test release that requires cygwin-1.5.3-tobe. There is a new perl-5.8.0 on the way which requires cygwin-1.3.22. > 2) Setup will uninstall the new version but won't, > after restart, recognize the earlier version, alone, > as a "local install" in ../reelease/perl. > How do I backtrack cygwin/setup.exe's records to > allow re-install of the earlier version? The setup.hint is faulty, it was already fxed and show up at the mirrors soon.
