Please could this be looked at? Interestingly, I don't get an error, but I did observe weird behaviour. The problem was caused by a broken upload of the new esound version. The subpackages were missing - in there place, there were foo-src.tar.bz2 files (which shouldn't have existed anyway, the subpackages are external-sourced to the main esound package), which contained the text of a 404 page. I've transferred correct copies from cygwin-ports.sourceforge.net. Things should be back to normal once the setup.ini cronjob re-runs, and the mirrors re-sync.
