A new version of Setup, release 2.872, has been uploaded to

  https://cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe     (32 bit version)
  https://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe  (64 bit version)

Changes compared to 2.871:

* New -i/--ini-basename option to choose a different basename for setup.

* New -I/--include-source option to automatically download and install
source packages corresponding to any selected binary packages.

* New -Y/--prune-install option to revert an existing installation to
match a fresh install.

* setup.ini can now be compressed as setup.xz (setup.bz2 remains
supported).

* Fix for package filenames which include colons (such as
xorg-x11-fonts-*)

* More input buffer optimizations

Please send bug reports, as usual, to the public mailing list cygwin AT
cygwin DOT com.
