But setup clearly indicated it was downloading both 2000* and 1.1.1 then it proceeded to install 1.1.1 and 2000* (in that order). Is this the behavior you'd expect just because there already happened to be a cygwin*.tar.gz file in the current directory? > 2) Setup does not use install time to track updates. Like I originally said, I have not tried to track down exactly what is going on behind the scenes. I was reporting what I saw. Do you have a theory that would explain why setup did what I observed? -- Jim Dumser dumser@bigfoot.com -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
