Continuing the install only installs the packages preselected by setup. Details: To install a fresh version of Cygwin, I usually do this: Run setup-x86_64.e= xe using "Download Without Installing", select some additional packages, and t= hen after everything finished, I rerun setup-x86_64.exe using "Install from Local Dir= ectory", and then the GUI, under Category view, shows "All <-> Default", beneath which is a h= ierarchical list including the packages preselected by setup along with the additional = ones that I selected when downloading. Here's the problem: I performed the above process using today's version of = setup-x86_64.exe from cygwin.com, which according to setup.ini is setup version 2.889, and t= he "Download Without Installing" setup worked as expected. However, when I next did "Install from Local Directory" using that directory, instead of showing= "All<->Default", it showed "No packages found<->Default", and only the packages preselected by setup were not going to be skipped. I tried changing "Default" to "Install"= at the top level of the list, but that then selected everything for install, not j= ust the preselected packages and the additional ones I had downloaded. I repeated this process = using a few different mirror sites for the download phase, but that made no diffe= rence. Interestingly, if I copy an older version of setup-x86_64.exe into my alrea= dy-downloaded directory, e.g. setup-x86_64.exe version 2.880, the GUI is able to find the= selected packages that I had already downloaded using setup version 2.889, after of course gi= ving a few warnings about the current ini file being from a newer version of setup. In other wo= rds, if I download using setup v2.889, then when subsequently installing from that directory, = setup v2.889 doesn't know what additional packages I had selected, whereas setup v2.880 does kno= w. I'm wondering if I'm not doing something correctly, or if there is an issue= with version 2.889 of setup-x86_64.exe not finding packages that were additionally selected for d= ownload. Version details: The beginning of setup.ini in my download directory includes this: release: cygwin arch: x86_64 setup-timestamp: 1519974241 setup-version: 2.889 This was done on Windows 10 pro, using setup-x86_64.exe v2.889 downloaded on March 3, 2018 UTC from cygwin.com, which currently indicates that the mo= st recent version of the Cygwin DLL is 2.10.0.
