You're not downloading the new "release" directory. From setup.ini:
: @ cygwin
: sdesc: "The UNIX emulation engine"
: category: Base
: version: 1.3.10-1
: install: release/cygwin/cygwin-1.3.10-1.tar.bz2 896850
: source: release/cygwin/cygwin-1.3.10-1-src.tar.bz2 3878779
Try:
wget -m -np ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/release/
Kind regards,
Jon Foster
