Because I prefer to keep things under control. And I don't think it will require a huge amount of work to disable working with permissions in setup.exe with command line switch. I started to worry about it because cygwin failed so much with permissions, having both cygwin-specific and inherited

Re: 1.7.[67]: getting bash prompt takes 50 seconds

2010-09-01 Thread Mark Callow
Hi Andrey, Did you tried to *uninstall* bash-completion? I have now. Surprisingly (to me) it worked. The time-to-prompt has dropped to ~5 seconds on one of the machines and ~8 seconds on the other. Both are still too long but a vast improvement over 50 seconds. Regards -Mark --

No, it wasn't a mess of my own making. I did not ever touch permissions, and it was a clean install. I don't know where these permissions came from, but ls -l displayed something like that for most files: drwxr-xr-x+ 1 user group 0 2010-09-02 09:32 tests This + sign after permissions string
