I've made a new version of fileutils available for download.

There are two differences between fileutils-4.0-2 and fileutils-4.0-3.
1) I compiled the package with gcc 2.95.3-2, and 2) 4.0-3 incorporates a
fix from Edward Tailbert which causes 'du' to report correct block sizes.

Thank you, Edward!

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.

Run setup and answer all of the questions.  We have recently stopped
downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) due to bandwidth
limitations.  This means that you will need to find a mirror which has
this update.

In the US,
ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
is a reliable high bandwidth connection.

In Germany,
ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/
is usually pretty good.

In the UK,
http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/
is usually up-to-date within 48 hours.

The setup.exe program will figure out what needs to be updated on your
system and will install newer packages automatically.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin
mailing list at: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com .  I would appreciate if you would
use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.  This includes
ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question, the Cygwin mailing list
is the appropriate place.
