Nope. I said =E2=80=9Cchmod 666 /var/log/setup.log=E2=80=9D, and setup.exe= still isn=E2=80=99t writing anything new to it. (That resulted in 606 permissions, for some reason. I have no idea why I e= ffectively have an 0070 umask on this system, even though =E2=80=9Cumask=E2= =80=9D from the normal Cygwin terminal says 0022.) Then, since I thought I remembered that setup.exe had a mode where it wrote= debugging stuff to stdout/stderr, I tried running =E2=80=9Csetup-x86_64.ex= e -vB=E2=80=9D from a dash admin shell, but got nothing on the console. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
