The long awaited setup.exe update has occured.

This new version has several key features.
1) A new view exists - categories - that will show packages in
categories.
2) All dependencies of a package are automatically installed when
installing a package. I.e. if you install gcc, binutils is automatically
installed.
3) The local cache directory is remembered from run to run.
4) New packages are not automatically installed. Only packages in the
"base" category, and packages which you already have installed on your
system will get installed.

The setup.ini to drive this is already present on all the mirror sites.
To update your setup.exe, just click on "Install Cygwin Now" on the
cygwin.com home page.
