Hello,
I use the latest version of the installer setup-x86.exe version 2.852
I think that the command line installer has some king of "bug".
The following line doesn't download the bash package:
setup-x86.exe --download --site
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin --quiet-mode
--no-shortcuts --local-package-dir c:\testdir --packages bash
Instead the following line does it (csih package):
setup-x86.exe --download --site
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin --quiet-mode
--no-shortcuts --local-package-dir c:\testdir --packages csih
I don't understand what is happening. I attache the log files: they
seem ok, but in fact the bash package is never downloaded.
You may be misunderstanding what the --download option is supposed to
do. I think it's supposed to cause setup to behave as though you had
checked the "Download Without Installing" option in an interactive
session. So it should download whatever packages have been selected for
installation. In your first run, the only package selected was bash,
which was already installed, so setup had nothing to do. In the second
run, I assume that you didn't already have csih installed, so setup
downloaded it for later install.
