 Any bloda running around ?
 
 I will bet on some other program interfering on
 cygwin
 program execution or dll loading.
 ... 
 Check also if all the DLL needed by wget, curl,
 ssh, procps, top, gawk
 are still there. I
 saw case where the Antivirus removed the dll's
 without big notice.
 
= = = = =

There is probably lots of bloda around, but that was 
not the problem. I suspect incompatible versions of 
some things, because of the way I'd been updating
using apt-cyg following announcements. I started
chasing down DLLs and dependencies, but it was 
too slow manually. Now I have a new, different 
slowness automatically.

I've now downloaded a complete cygwin mirror
onto a networked storage, done a new install, and
cygwin works OK again. However, doing updates or
package installs is (1) extremely slow, and (2) giving
a below reported permissions problem.

(1) Slowness. After the setup initial steps and pointing
to the local install location, I get to the following display
for 10s of minutes to hours (see log excerpt farther down).
It eventually goes to the next step. There is a very
low, steady network traffic during the delay. This 
storage and network is usually fast for other things, 
including during actual package installs.

Is it searching through all the files in the mirror?

Can I change something to make this faster?

Setup Display:
Cygwin Setup (Not Responding) 
Parsing...
H:\home\...
100% (9704k/9704k)
Package: [static progress bar]

(2) I'm seeing the following error, and reporting as it 
suggests. It doesn't seem to 
cause any problem, but I can't change the permissions
(non-admin) to make it go away.

Package: _/Unknown package
        inetutils-server.sh exit code 1

check /var/log/setup.log.full and report any problems
