I tried again this morning, a little after 10 a.m. PST, from my
usual mirror site cygwin.osuosl.org. Setup.exe spent a few minutes
fetching quite a few files and installing them, then finished
without any error messages. Everything seems to be working fine
now. Yay! And whew!
I just tried reinstalling bash via the same mirror, and got the same
error message (the one I posted about an hour or two ago) about
cygreadline6.dll not being found :(
If I'm understanding the other posts correctly this issue stems from the
fact that there are a number of packages in the setup.ini (that is read
by setup.exe) files on all the mirrors that are missing required:
version:
install:
... lines. vim (grep for '@ vim') is a good example. Before everyone
pounds this poor mirror to death hoping for a solution by doing fresh
installs you can see by looking at:
ftp://cygwin.osuosl.org/pub/cygwin/setup.ini
... that the problem is still in effect there.
You can check this file on a mirror by adding '/pub/cygwin/setup.ini' to
the mirror URL). Presumably there is no point burning the servers
bandwidth doing futile downloads if you still see the same issue present.
