Subject: Latest "setup-x86(_64)?\.exe" version supporting WinXP
Date: Tue, 04 Oct 2016 12:34:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAC2zJ1u6Ebssg5M+P=BPsQQU_gTN9i5P1_PfHb_xM2Hxww0J1w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello.

I'm seeing some contradicting clues from cygwin.com and
fruitbat.org's Cygwin Time Machine [1] as to which
is the latest version of "setup-x86(_64)?\.exe" with WinXP "support".

Something like:

> The previous Cygwin version 2.5.2 was the last version supporting Windows XP and Server 2003.
< The last version of Setup to support XP is 2.874.

The SHA1SUMs of the files that come from fruitbat.org are:

4a01cccf0d6036b1bbca3bbaf13a97a97ca73918 setup-x86_64-2.874.exe
e8778fbd16f6d95b7abb0c93d31e8abb4d24d943 setup-x86-2.874.exe

So, would, please, confirm that the version offered from fruitbat.org
is the last that includes WinXP "support"?

Would you also, please, confirm the validity of those files?

Thanks in advance,
Sophoklis
