It has always been the advice of this list that you should read the
announcements on cygwin-announce@ and cygwin-xfree-announce before
upgrading blindly.  Now, often you can get away with /not/ doing that, d
nothing bad will happen.  But if I ran setup, and saw 157 new packages
about to be upgraded...I might want to investigate a little before
clicking "continue".

But, as always, it's up to you. We'll happily refund all the money you paid.
