I was replying to both of you, and quoting you through Igor's quote. > So, if it doesn't exist anymore, how do we workaround a package validation > failure exception? Essentially the operation of setup.exe now is as if --no-md5 was always passed on the command line. Previously there were two types of MD5 check, one that checked the entire local package directory (if you select 'install from local dir') and a second that checks each package before installing it. This meant unnecessary double-checking of packages you were about to install from a local dir, and unnecessary checking of packages you had no intent to install. The operation of the second kind (which was always unaffected by --no-md5) remains the same. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps-cvs/2005-q2/msg00036.html Brian
