At the moment the two setup executables http://cygwin.com/setup.exe and http://cygwin.com/setup-legacy.exe are identical: sha1sum *exe fdc9379ed58231cddd25bb7b448426681a3dd3c3 *setup-legacy.exe fdc9379ed58231cddd25bb7b448426681a3dd3c3 *setup.exe Something wrong somewhere? (On 31 Dec I installed 1.5 and 1.7 separately, independently, and successfully, with setup-legacy.exe "knowing" that it had to use setup-legacy.ini and setup.exe "knowing" that it had to use setup.ini. I assumed that the executables were different, even though slightly annoyingly they have the same version number 2.674. Has something changed since then, or am I missing some magic trick whereby setup*exe "knows" to behave differently, depending on the spelling of its own name? Sorry for silly use of "knows" but I can't think of a different way of phrasing this particular enquiry.)
