Re: Setup.exe issues between Win2k and WinXP - does it use different logic for setup retrieval or package ver selection

The continuing saga - right after my last post on this setup started reporting the same packages for both the WinXP and the Win2k machine as it should and that as worked for several checks since then but now today and this is too weird - I went to update using setup and all both the WinXp and the Win2k laptop both reported a boat load full of packages that needed updating and in most cases the new was less than the current. I am still using the same mirrors as documented above. Any thought on this as all? Why I keep seeing this and now it happened on both machines not just the Win2k. Could that be a result of the setup.ini problem? Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat

That most recent issue yes - I reported that before cgf reported the upset issue and my issue cleared up when he resolved that. I was able to update as expected after his fix. My previous posts as to why WinXP would report one set of updates and my Win2k a different set I never did figure out. After several attempts at updating and the two versions reporting differences they miraculously resolved themselves and I still have no clue. But yes both systems are in sync and up to date. Thanks bk

I fixed that on sourceware, so let's see if that helps. upset is not supposed to just corrupt a setup.ini file if a setup.hint file is missing a quote. I identified the problem an hour and a half ago and have been trying, amidst meetings, to fix the problem in upset that caused this to be undetected. I was just puzzling over why things changed after a current debug run and it occurred to me to look at the posh/setup.hint. How frustrating. I appreciate that you are trying to help but I didn't ask anyone to track this down for me. If I wanted help I would have said I need help. Since setup.ini file generation is currently turned off you can't actually do anything to fix this problem anyway. cgf
