Now I'm seeing really flaky behavior in 2.908 * Empty Pending list when packages are available 1 Click through all the initial dialogs to the package selection window (confirm there are packages to update) 2 Click the Back button 3 Click the Next button At this point the package selection window is empty for me. You can restore the list by changingthe Keep/Best/Sync option from Best to Sync and then back to Best. * "This version of setup is *older* than the one you used last time" Does not happen the first time the new setup is launched, but then occurs intermittently thereafter. I saw that message on two occasions, and the second time setup-x86_64.exe crashed a few seconds later. No message, the window just closed after I dismissed the message popup. Note: When I downloaded the new setup-x86_64.exe I overwrote the old one, so there's no chance (barring an OS caching bug) I was running 2.905 at that point. Since I don't think it will help debug a setup problem I'm not attaching cygcheck.out, but can make it available if needed. -- Jim Garrison jhg@acm.org
