I currently have 2.1.0-1 (32-bit) and am wondering if there are any known issues in upgrading through that many versions. Are there any preparatory steps I should perform to reduce the likelihood of problems during the install or post-install process? -- Jim Garrison (jhg@acm.org) PGP Keys at http://www.jhmg.net RSA 0x04B73B7F DH 0x70738D88 -- 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 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
