Subject: Possible changes to setup.exe interface and name
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2012 15:11:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <op.wkxwgzaf6sg3vl@ravid> (raw)
I would like to change the setup.exe so that it loads the package
selection page when it starts.
And only runs the wizard when a current installation of the current
version is not detected.
The file name setup.exe is ambiguous if stored in a folder with other
application installation files.
I suggest using the file name cygpac.exe and application name Cygwin
package manager.
I am happy to implement both of these changes my self but I need feed back
and permission from the community.
