No, it doesn't. The "current" column is blank. Also, there are no XFree86 packages in the download directory from before, so that's not a factor either, I think. Actually, that brings up a good point: how does setup decide if a package has been installed, and what version of it? Where does it keep this information? Perhaps I had once installed and then removed XFree86 (I can't remember), and that has left some droppings behind somewhere? -- Shankar. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
