Actually there is is problem with this binary I posted, it crashes near
the end of the install (although the install does seem to work).
I don't *think* it is my patch because I have the same results when I
compile a clean CVS checkout. I have to look further into it before I
can comment any
Ricardo,
I understand your problem with a slow link.
Does anyone know where the source to setup.exe is kept?
Sometimes, if I just want to make sure I have the latest version of
something
I avoid setup.exe and ftp the file directly from one of my favorite
mirrors.
For example , to see what

Can't it compare the date of the files on the server

I know too, now that Igor posted the link to that patch.
Google is my friend, but Igor has a better user interface :-)

Problem
Here is a link to a compiled version of my patch from a few days ago.
While I can't imagine what could go wrong, I dont have any detailed
knowledge of setup.exe and I have not tested this compile very
thoroughtly yet! (ie you have been warned, but use if it helps).

Does setup have to download mirrors.lst and setup.bz2
every time? Can't it compare the date of the files on
the server and on the computer? I have a dial up
connection and I can only download a few packages per
day, and every day setup downloads those files.

I 2nd this request -- wanted to install some other packages but was
blocked by the mirrors.txt download -- maybe it could use a cached
copy of mirrors.txt to look at other mirror files -- i.e. cache mirrors.txt
on the existing mirrors so if cygwin server is down, setup would use
existing mirrors

Would not it be great if Cygwin's setup did not just fail if
mirrors.lst is unavailable and continued with just last server in the
