Yeah, that looks fine..
Standard procedure is to attach the output of cygcheck -s -v -r though..
That said, I've just checked mine and I'm still getting this message..
As well as all messages being duplicated now.. Joy..
No idea why offhand.

Will investigate more later, but hopefully someone will come up with

It doesn't seem to be anything to worry about though.

arrived... Are you ready to go?
