Hello Barry,
thanks for the email. This packaging "error" dates back to my
predecessor who put the file there on purpose, to allow for the creation
of a Windows start menu entry "cygwin setup" (with the setup.exe behind
it). It also has to do with another distribution that we used to offer
to SINGULAR users.
Anyway, I will remove the file from the package. There is going to be a
new minor release of SINGULAR anyway, so that I will send new binaries
for upload soon.
Thanks again and
best regards,

Subject: singular-icons: possible packaging error?
To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>
The singular-icons package contains the following file in both
versions 3.0.3-1 and 3.1.0-1.
/usr/lib/Singular/cygwin-setup.exe
I point this out since it seems strange to me and I wonder whether it
might be a mistake.
I apologized for wasting bandwidth if it is not an error.
Thanks,
- Barry
