I've been trying to update this 1.7.5 release of Cygwin since 11AM EDT, based on the multiple announcements of updated packages. Each time I select a mirror and select those packages I want to update, the process starts. It continues up to some particular point, and then I get the incomplete download box, and the program wants me to try again. During the first phase of this attempted update I was working in an area that has had the rumors of a poorly configured proxy server, although the information of how this server was configured was never told to me. (Customer who has an IT department that sometimes resembles the Anarchists Football League complete with clones of each of their favorite stars.) Eventually after several repeated tries there, I waited until a few minutes ago here, and decided to try again. This time it happened again with the addition of the mirror based at the Open Software repository at the Oregon State University. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg DOT drwho8 AT gmail DOT com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
