Subject: Is setup.exe _supposed_ to delete the cygwin dll before attempting to run shell scripts?

  I just decided to update my cygwin install for the first time in a while.

  During the uninstalling old stuff stage, all the uninstall scripts started
failing with "Can't find cygwin1.dll".

  Sure enough, that's because setup.exe had indeed deleted
c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll.

  Is this expected behaviour?



    cheers,
