Well, just say "manual" at this prompt to override the heuristics for
switching to local::lib, then.  Alternatively you can report it upstream
so that this check is properly guarded (if the leading path is writable
by the current user then local::lib is not necessary).

In general, if you install Cygwin often enough for this to be a nuisance
I'd recommend adding a package to your local repo that sets up such
things in a postinstall script.


Regards,
Achim.
