Hi,

when updating my cygwin installation, the installer was
unable to automatically update cygwin1.dll rendering a
couple of nasty errors when trying to run e.g. ssh.

From the installer, I then chose to uninstall the Base/cygwin
part, hoping to reinstall it later. However, now that its
gone, the setup.exe program fails to list the cygwin package
as one I can install.

I've tried to select "Reinstall" for the entire Base package.
This did not help. I tried to reinstall All packages. This
did not help. Cygwin is still missing as a package when I run
setup.exe...

What should I do to get cygwin back?

Niklas
