If no regressions are discovered in the next week or so, it will be promoted to release. This is not the place for setup feature requests. Changes compared to 2.882: - Various improvements to behaviour after a download error - Don't fatal() on unexpected early window messages (Addresses: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2017-07/msg00428.html) - Remove support for installing from a local directory which doesn't contain a setup.ini file - Make 'System Proxy Settings' the default (for new installations) on the 'Select Connection Type' page, rather than 'Direct' - Fix reading and writing of the "extrakeys" user setting. Maybe -U/-u does something useful now? - Pressing enter in the URL textbox on the "Choose Download Site(s)" page now does 'Add', rather than 'Next' - Pressing enter in the search textbox on the "Select Packages" page now causes the search to be performed, rather than 'Next' - Fix concatenating depends: from each version description section - Bullet-proof the way we remove empty categories - If more than one download site is used, we now require downloading setup.ini from all of them to succeed, rather than just one of them. - Various code rearrangements and simplifications Thanks to Ken Brown for several of these changes. -- 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
