Is it advisable to run both Cygwin 32- and 64-bit setup installers
with the same downloaded set of packages from a unique mirror? I have
6GB data downloaded from a mirror, I downloaded that while running
step 64-bit installer. I want to remove that Cygwin 64-bit and now
install the Cygwin 32-bit (so, use the setup 32-bit) but with the
same data mirror.
Once upon a time, it could cause a problem, but now that setup.exe's
download tree structure includes $arch, there is no conflict.
I assume you are doing this because you need some package that is only
in Cygwin 32? If so, which one?
