I recently had a problem with vim that was the result of my unwittingly hav=
ing two previous versions of vim in my /usr/bin.  Is it normal for the cygw=
in installer not to delete or clobber the previous versions?  I'm not sure =
what I did wrong, if anything, in updating my cygwin installation.


Best regards,
John
