Nope, the sheer number of packaages.

Sorry. You already answered this. I thought I'd read the whole thread
but obviously I hadn't.

How do package listing changes affect setup.exe? When I see "package
listing changes", I think http://cygwin.com/packages/ .
Do you mean the addition of the md5 field in setup.ini?

There was a latent bug in setup that recent package listing changes
triggered. The latest snapshot corrects this AFAICT.

When I try to run the Cygwin setup program (version 2.194.2.26), it
downloads setup.ini and then uses a lot of CPU time and displays a blank
screen saying "This space is left intentionally blank" and I have to end
up killing the program.
I've also tried using the two snapshot versions (2.216 and 2.218.2.2)
from http://www.cygwin.com/setup-snapshots and in both cases I get a
parse stack overflow error in setup.ini.
I'm running Windows XP Professional.
What is causing the setup program to fail as I'm findingiit frustrating
that currently I can't update my Cygwin installation especially given
that it was working about a week or two ago?
Thanks,
Mark
