I can't duplicate this. If I redirect stdout I get this: Starting cygwin install, version 2.774 and the log files contain the correct version too. Moreover, I can't find the string 2.769 in any object file that was used to create setup.exe. >BTW, would it be possible to show on the website what version of setup >it is? No, I don't think that level of bookkeeping is worth it. setup.exe is not a product. You don't have to download it to get new features that you need day-to-day. If you are worried about always getting the newest version before updating Cygwin then you could just write a "runsetup.bat" file: @echo off wget -O setup.exe --quiet http://cygwin.com/setup.exe .\setup.exe And execute "runsetup" every time you want to perform an update. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
