| I'm a user. I haven't followed the mailing list. I start the
| setup.exe every workday and click through it.
|
| So, you are saying I should reinstall 1.5.25-12.
Yes.
|
| How do I do this with setup.exe? Delete everything? How can I
| select everything again that is selected now?
One way - rerun setup.exe and choose a mirror that has caught up to the
upstream reversion (in my testing, at least ftp://mirrors.kernel.org has
done so; the rest will do so within 24 hours or so).
The other way - rerun setup.exe, then click the 'View' button until Full
is shown, then scroll down to cygwin, then click the 'New' column until
1.5.25-12 shows. In other words, intentionally downgrade cygwin back to
its last stable version.
