The first time setup-1.7.1-1 was updated you'd see this same critical problem.

Changing the name doesn't help that in any way. cgf -- 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
