Ok, I'll try to see whether I get this done. Basically, is there a problem with creating a complete fake setup.ini that just lists every package I have downloaded as belonging to category Base, with no dependencies? If it will get overwritten when installing from internet, there would not seem to be much of a problem, right? -- David Kastrup -- 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/
