Subject: Unexpected permissions for home dir install
Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2022 21:59:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CABgBby9XGgPJTVwmN0MRYXzdZ9ctBcHO0ZkmkDwD5bnfm6QZfw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I did read that upon installation.

But I read it more as:
"Cygwin is still available to multiple users, depending
on where you install it".

I did not expect it to apply when installing Cygwin into a
private home directory.

And maybe other people read it similar to how I read it.

But its also entirely possible that its just me, and that
I should be more careful about my assumptions the next time
I install something.
