OS: Win2K Installed cygwin via setup (both download and install), pretty much accepted the defaults. Installed to C:\cygwin. Worked well. Returned a few weeks later to add a few more packages. Setup appeared to work well, but the new packages did not appear in /bin. Upon investigation, I located the files in C:\cygwin\usr\bin. I moved them into C:\cygwin\bin, and things seem to be working OK. Why did they go into C:\cygwin\usr\bin? The standard global mounts are there under HKLM. Below is a portion of setup.log.full showing the installation of the man package. What's with the '///'?
