A new version of Setup (2.908) has been uploaded to:
https://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe (64 bit version)
https://cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe (32 bit version)
Changes compared to 2.905:
- If a selected site URL saved from the last run starts with "http://";,
and an identical URL, except starting with "https://";, is in the current
mirror list, migrate it from "http://"; to "https://";.
- Propagate the value of the CYGWIN environment variable into post
install and pre-remove scripts (Thanks to Michael Wild for this patch).
Partially addresses:
https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2020-August/245994.html
- Warn about unknown package names used with '--packages' or
'--remove-packages' options.
- Add support for installing a specific package version from the command
line, with the syntax '--packages package=version'.
- Add '--allow-test-packages' option, which allows the consideration of
test packages when upgrading etc. to be turned on from the command line
(Thanks to David Allsopp for this patch).
- Move (potentially localizable) installation progress and package
action strings to string table resource.
- Fix new warnings and build issues with gcc 10.
- During configure, check for x86 gcc configured with incompatible DW2
exception handling.
