As I said last week, in Message-ID: <43BDBD25 DOT 4397 DOT D39ECE AT ia DOT stryx DOT demon DOT co DOT uk> - a message which I didn't see any reply to, I have this problem with both xorg-x11-{fenc,fnts}. I tried the "work-around", and I now have three (identical) copies of xorg-x11-fenc. The work-around certainly has the value of allowing you to install other packages, but doesn't get me any further forward with the failing packages. You call this a *bogus* failure, which certainly seems to be the case, since the size and md5 of the files match those in setup.ini - but then I don't see how the work-around is supposed to work. Could you enlighten me? -- Iain Alexander ia AT stryx DOT demon DOT co DOT uk -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
