Is there some likelihood that some of the mirrors have corrupted packages?
Sure, it's possible. Just like it's possible for files to get corrupted during your download.
Is there a method to determine whether or not any specific download mirror has received the current build correct and intact?
There's an MD5SUM for the package in setup.ini. You can check that value against the value you get for the package. That's essentially what "setup*.exe" does though. It sounds to me like it was reporting that case to you (i.e. download incomplete). -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
