Oh, ok. Could you maybe elaborate more on this? What else does this do, except selecting "Keep" for all packages and thus doing nothing more than I select it manually to do? What does it different than changing all unwanted updates to "Keep" manually in the package list? > If you ask me, Setup is long overdue for a complete replacement. > It "don't have" so many things other package managers allow, that I don't even > know, where to start. Meta dependencies? Suggestions? Virtual packages? Indeed, no objection here. But still I find it strange that "Cur" selects 2.0.4, while it is not selectable manually in the "New" column. > Select "pending" list and remove checkboxes from binary packages you don't > want to install. Sure, that is what I described. But I don't update the packages often, as I always have open a dozen bashes or so, and don't want to close all because of update of files in use. So there are a lot of packages to deselect. But --packages ftw. :-) > P.S. > Please don't https://cygwin.com/acronyms/#TOFU Sorry Regards Björn -- 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
