Subject: | [cygwin] setup.exe Contrib vs latest question |

To all but in particular DJ, I have noticed on my Win95 machine when I run setup.exe and do a download only of packages to install, those that belong to contrib (according to setup.ini) end up in the contrib subdirectory and those that belong to latest end up in latest - just as they should. When I then proceed to do an install from local directory then the files and subdirectories that were in contrib seem to end up with duplicates in latest as well. Has anyone else noticed this? And before I go looking for why this occurs I was wondering if setup was designed this way or if this is an oops that needs fixing.
