Setup Parse Errors

Setup Parse Errors

[Parker, Ron]

I am attempting to run setup version 2.340.2.5, which I just downloaded from
cygwin.com, and I am receiving a number of different "Parse Errors"
processing setup.bz2.  They all read:

	(null) line X: syntax error, unexpected NL, expecting STRING	
	(null) line X: unrecognized line X+1 (do you have the latest setup?)

for x in 429 440 744.  

It's also interesting that each time I back up and try again with a
different site the list gets appended to instead of restarted.  I might try
debugging this, but I have to get Cygwin reinstalled first, catch-22.  

This is all because tetex-base-2.0.1.13(version???) was freezing setup, so I
decided to uninstall and reinstall.

I am getting the same problem exactly after downloading setup 2.340.2.5 due
to the tetex problem. I can no longer update cygwin.

Please use the mailing lists mentioned on the cygwinports web site

Hi,

I've got the same problem ...
There are double quotes missing in the uncompressed file at lines : 25975 and
25987 (after 'a Web interface or a GTK GUI.')...
So this file is not good! Don't know how to fix it... and when they will fix
it...If you download and uncompress the file you will see the problem.
Thierry

Setup Parse Errors

[Mahir Morshed]

Hello,
 
I'm trying to download Cygwin Ports packages to my computer using the method mandated on Sourceware, but when I get past the download site list (e.g. while parsing setup.ini), I get twenty-two errors in a large dialog box that look something like this:
 
ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/setup.bz2 line 25983: syntax error, unexpected STRING, expected NL
ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/setup.bz2 line 25983: unrecognized line 25983 (do you have the latest setup?)
ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/setup.bz2 line 25983: unrecognized line 25983 (do you have the latest setup?)

ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/setup.bz2 line 25984: unrecognized line 25984 (do you have the latest setup?)
 
This has been duplicated with some of Sourceware's other mirrors.
When I try to go to a typical Cygwin mirror (not Cygwin Ports), the setup.ini is parsed correctly.
Is there anything I can do to make the setup.ini be parsed correctly, or is it a glitch in the setup.exe file?
