Have you reported the problem to the list (see )? Doing so could make your need for an old, unsupported version of the DLL moot. > The thing is.

Your local download directory might have it too. If it does, just tell 'setup.exe' to install from your local directory and 1.5.24-2 will show up as an option. If you don't have it in your local download directory, use 'wget' or your other favorite tool to download it from a mirror and put it in your local download directory. There's also the "Cygwin Time Machine" (google it). Note that neither process for installing old DLLs is recommended and the older versions are not supported by this list. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
