Hi,

I recently bought a new laptop and of course it was loaded with Windows
Vista(Ultimate).
So as usual I tried to install cygwin on it, I run the setup.exe, I let the
default install folder
and then I need to choose packages.
First I was surprised because I couldn't find subversion, so I quit setup
and restart it but this time
with another mirror and then I was able to find subversion but when I try
to install it, setup crash.
So since I was motivated I try it again but this time, withe the first
mirror and this time subversion
was available!!! Anyway I told me it might be some network issues so I keep
on installing.

After a few minutes I realized I forget to install emacs, so I run setup,
install it with mintty as well
and then I enter emacs on prompt. this time emacs.exe crash and I am
proposed to debug it.

So my question is : does cygwin have some known issues with Vista ?
Of course I can use vim for instance but I find it annoying...
