I guess this explains why the bandwidth is always pegged there. No, 1.1.8-1 has made it to the mirrors. I ran setup to update to gcc-7 to help test *that* -- and noticed that 1.1.8 was there. I *knew* it was also a test release (since I read cygwin-developers) -- and wanted to help test it. ------ However, I think there may be something wrong with the script that generates setup.ini -- it doesn't seem to honor the 'test' marker in a setup.hint file. popt is not listed as a test release and shows up in the setup window as official. ------ Sorry, false alarm: problem between keyboard and chair. My popt setup.hint had a colon in it -- 'test: 1.6.1-1'. This is also the reason wget and ncftp were never marked 'test'. ------ In any case, I just checked sourceware and there is no setup.hint file -- so anybody who runs setup for any reason (e.g. Corinna's ash or bash updates) will also see the cygwin-1.1.8 on the mirrors and will not be immediately informed that it is a test release. --Chuck -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
