There is one problem that I've noticed with setup-2.506 that I've been
meaning to report. I don't know if it is a regression or not.
I noticed that when bash-3.0 was in testing that if you selected a 3.0
version by cycling through versions but without Clicking on "Exp", setup
seemed to just remove bash entirely rather than installing the 3.0
version. I hadn't reported this because I wanted to provide more
details but if we're thinking about releasing this then I thought I
should mention what I've noticed.
As I said, I don't know if this is a regression or not.
