hi there, i know it may be a newbie question, but how can i update easily packages in cygwin. i tried the setup-tool, but it downloads everytime the whole bunch of packages and seems to install the whole stuff again, either i had already installed cygwin completly. i just want to add one package.
It shouldn't. If you are choosing the correct/same install root-directory and package download directory, which are the defaults in the respective fields, it should only attempt to download updated packages, unless you choose otherwise.
