Well, that's not such a big issue, is it? As long as upgrading works fine...

<shrug> It may be enough that the problem and the solution is now documented on the list.


Maybe in addition, if/when setup-1.7.exe is linked from the Cygwin home page in beta form, you warn there of this: if you install 1.7 fresh on a system, subsequently installing 1.5 on it will be somewhat difficult. I can't imagine there *not* being a transition period, where this sort of thing will happen at least a few times.
