Hello,
I have downloaded and run the newest setup.exe (version 2.249.2.2) on three
different machines. Two running Win2kpro, and one running WinXPPro. In
every case, regardless of the server I chose to download from (I tried
several on all machines) The download fails on the file
'_ipdate-info-dir-00006-1.tar.bz2' I finally managed to get it to work by
expanding the list of packages to install and unselecting 'setup: The Cygwin
Net Distribution installer and updater program' If I have any version
selected for installation, then it fails. But by skipping this package it
succeeds.
Is this package necessary for cygwin? Is this a known bug?
Thanks,
--James
