That's quite strange. I tried to reproduce this with setup.exe 2.510.2.2 and the snapshot 2.553 but neither hung there. I can't think of what could cause this. I think you can rule out download corruption since setup.exe would have complained about a md5 sum mismatch, but just in case the one I have is: e8aa6773706e273d16329451f7c896a9 *gettext-0.15-1.tar.bz2 If you want to install this package by hand in the same way setup.exe would, you can try the following: tar jxvf /path/to/gettext-0.15-1.tar.bz2 -C / >/etc/setup/gettext.lst gzip /etc/setup/gettext.lst echo "gettext gettext-0.15-1.tar.bz2 0" >>/etc/setup/installed.db . /etc/postinstall/gettext.sh && mv /etc/postinstall/gettext.sh{,.done} (Note: untested but should work.) > with no effect.

It's not a strictly required package, and only useful for development, but if it keeps getting added that means some package you have installed lists it as a requirement.
