If you just re-run setup.exe, choosing "Install from internet" and then clicking "Next" all the way through without altering anything, it should just update your installation and, as part of that, it will verify the installed packages and attempt to install anything missing. So hopefully it'll only download anything that failed last time, or if it downloaded ok but the install step failed last time, it'll just re-run the install step. It should be much easier than redownloading the whole thing. If for any reason it doesn't work, you could try manually selecting the "libintl3" package on the package chooser page to "Reinstall". cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- 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/
