I've updated from CVS and built and used the last couple (2.175 and 2.176) setup.exe's. It will take me a while to get used to the new source organization and I wanted to check a few of my assumptions before I dig them out of the source.
It appears that all new downloads, both setup.ini and package files, now go to source specific subtrees, for example files from ftp://ftp.mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin are saved in under ./ftp%3a%2f%2fmirrors.rcn.net%2fmirrors%2fsources.redhat.com%2fcygwin/. After setup.ini is downloaded from all candidates, either they are merged or the newest one is used. Likewise, the package file found in any subtree may be used for installing that package. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
