What exactly is: "local package directory".  My directory (/updates) is 
void of any *.ini files and it still complains.  The only file "close" 
in my whole installation is a "setup-2.ini" which always seem to get 
re-created.  Is maybe the mirror-site has an out-of-date .ini file?  
(/updates/ftp%3a%2f%2fmirror.internode.on.net%2fpub%2fcygwin%2f)
