You get this: --------------------------- Cygwin Setup --------------------------- Package file wget has a corrupt local copy, please remove and retry. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- *Then setup closes*. This is not right. If the archive is missing, or if the archive fails the SHA check, *then the file should be redownloaded by setup*, and SHA check run again. With the current system, setup exits, then the user has to navigate to where the problem file is, for example: C:\http%3a%2f%2fcygwin.mirror.constant.com%2f\x86_64\release\wget then delete the problem file, then restart setup. I cant see why setup shouldnt just automate all of this. Also here is a new issue - on the "Select Connection Type" page - "Use System Proxy Settings" is the first choice, and by default the selected choice. "Direct Connection" should be the first choice, and by default the selected choice. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
