Re: Cygwin doesn't install gcc even though I select it

When using "setup.exe" to install cygwin, I select "gcc: C compile upgrade helper" from the category devel in the package menu. However, when I then check in my cygwin bin folder there is no "gcc", although there is "gcc-3.exe". I cannot use the gcc command in cygwin "bash: gcc command not found". When I launch setup.exe again then the "gcc: C compile upgrade helper" box is unchecked, even though I checked it before. I have tried to check and install it repeatedly but to no avail.

Who knows what's going on here?

Did you read the release announcement?
