When I do a clean install of cygwin on a machine which doesn't have anything on it, and I don't select *any* packages, then I get less, and libpcre, but not libpcre0. If I select less (unselect it and then reselect it), libpcre0 is added. How does setup.exe decide what packages are in the initial default install?
