Hi all,
Updating cygwin two days ago revealed two problems with cywings setup.exe
1) corrupted /etc/setup/<PKG>.lst.gz
setup tries to read the file and stops. The error message in the logfile
did not mention the filename. Deleting the broken file solved the problem
2) insufficent file permissions
A folder had 0700 permission for my user account and installing as admin
user hang when setup tried to write a file to that folder. It printed
log messages continously and ate up all memory.
bye
