Ah, this might explain why I never had this problem in the 15+ years
of using Cygwin. I got a new PC a while ago and data was just copied
to it from the old PC. It certainly omitted registry settings. Now 
that I updated my Cygwin installation setup's amnesia is gone.

c:\cygwin is the default for 32 bit installation.

Nevermind, I found it. setup.exe chose c:\cygwin as installation directory
which is wrong for my installation. I don't know, though, why it picked
this directory. Anyway, if I enter the correct location manually everything
is fine. Sorry for the noise.

Thanks, I did and I can't find anything wrong. Where does setup.exe gets
the information from? I tried several versions, the current official one,
the new snapshot and something older I have lying around. They all do
this. They are in my distribution directory with all the Cygwin downloads
and all show the correct location of distribution directory and installation
directory. Some junk in the registry?

Thanks,
Michael

69 packages seems a minimal installation.
May be you have more than one Cygwin installed ?

Double check the proposed installation directory from setup

Setup missing installed packages

[Lemke, Michael ST/HZA-ZIC2]

I was just about to update my Cygwin installation when setup would list only a fraction of my installed packages. For instance git is missing but I have it installed. setup_version is 2.893 and running it with -v it tells there are 69 packages installed. But

$ wc /etc/setup/installed.db
  835  2504 36779 /etc/setup/installed.db

and I also see all these tar files in the installation directory. This is a 32bit installation on Win10 64bit.

What is going on, how can I debug this?
