I built setup.exe from the sources in setup-2.592-1.7special.tar.bz2, and the resulting program seems a bit buggy. There have been two problems I've noticed so far:
1) It stopped and complatined that release/gcc/gcc-3.4.4-3.tar.bz2 wasn't a valid file format. Yet tar seems quite happy with it. 2) About 6-8 times during the install, it stopped and complained Can't open file://D:\cygwin/ for reading: No such file The working directory when setup.exe was started was d:/cygwin, and the packages are all in d:/cygwin/release I just clicked "OK" on all the error dialog boxes and the install continued and produced what appears to be a working install. Should I be using an older version of setup sources? The working setup.exe that I downloaded yesterday appears to be version 2.573.2.3. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!
