Eventually it gives up with: Ok. This looks like a handle leak. You're probably doing this on Windows 9x and have something like "FILES=40" in your config.sys, right? I've uploaded setup 1.33 to cygwin/latest. It tries to be more diligent about closing everything. It also creates the temporary files in the same directory as setup.exe. Please try the new version of setup and, if it fails, send a directory listing of the directory where setup.exe is located to cygwin AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com cgf -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
