Upgrade from 1.5.25 to 1.7.1 fails.


Updates using 1.5.25 have always worked, so I had
assumed my setup configuration files had managed
to stay intact.

But, after reading the new User Guide I tried
the new setup.exe and after about the third
package download from ftp://mirrors.kernel.org
I got:

Can't open
G:/installs/cygwin/packages/ftp%3a%2f%2fmirrors.kernel.org%2fsourceware%2fcygwi
n%2f/release/GNOME/_obsolete/atk/atk-1.26.0-1.tar.bz2.tmp
for writing.

and when I click OK on that, setup just exits.

There is no _obsolete subdirectory in that tree.

What does one do now???
