Perhaps there are new problems. I send only for the sake of completeness. Usually I update Cygwin dawnloading the packages with the scripts 'getcurr.sh' and 'clean_setup.pl' (both in the tar ball). Now with the snapshot 20061023 14:06:13, Cygwin gives the following warning:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
$ ./getcurr.sh
....

Bunzipping2 setup.bz2 and adding .ini to it......done
cygwin warning:
MS-DOS style path detected: C:/cygwin/home/Angelo/Downloads/cygwin
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /home/Angelo/Downloads/cygwin
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this
warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

Base Directory: /home/Angelo/Downloads/cygwin

where does it take 'C:/cygwin/home/Angelo/Downloads/cygwin' from ?
I never use 'MS-DOS style path' ! and those scripts do not contain any
'MS-DOS style path' !
Cheers,
Angelo.
