RE: Should setup.ini say prev to cygwin 1.5.8 is 1.5.5


The problem with going back to 1.5.5 is that one starts getting "The
procedure entry point _fcntl64 could not be located in the dynamic link
library cygwin1.dll" error message.  I'd hate to have roll everything back
to the way it was before 1.5.6-1.

I've played with trying to get setup to roll back to 1.5.7-1 by editing
setup.ini, so far without success.  Any hints would be appreciated.
(Explicit instructions would be GREATLY appreciated.)  I'd hate to go into
"unsupported land" by just untaring it outside of setup?

And just for my education, why was 1.5.7-1 thought to be so inferior to
1.5.5-1 that it was skipped for prev?  I'm sure that the answer is in the
cygwin-developers mailing list, but, as a "civilian", I have no access to
its archives.

1.5.5-1 is the proper previous version, just as it was for 1.5.7.
