A new setup release candidate is available at: https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.880.x86.exe (32 bit version) https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.880.x86_64.exe (64 bit version)Please test and report problems to cygwin@cygwin.com. If no regressions are discovered in the next week or so, it will be promoted to release.
Changes compared to 2.879: - "Internet Explorer Proxy Settings" is renamed to "System Proxy Settings".- Remove support for the syntax "requires: A | B" in setup.ini, which calm/upset/genini never generated, and was just treated as "requires: A", anyhow.
- Fix a bug where installing a version other than the current version the first time a package is installed might lead to it's dependencies not being installed.
- Add some progress reporting during preremove and uninstall operations.- Fix a bug which caused orphaned packages to be omitted from the picker. (A regression introduced in 2.878)
- Correctly account for source packages to be installed due to the --include-source option in the total amount of data to checksum.
- Rename the category "Misc" to "Orphaned". - Fix an infinite recursion in the setup.ini parser for "depends:"- Error recovery in setup.ini parsing is now slightly improved, so the same parse error isn't reported multiple times.
- Add the option "--user-agent" to override the user-agent string sent in HTTP requests.
(Addresses: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-02/msg00857.html etc.) - The default user-agent string now contains the setup version. - Fix that clicking on any column can change "Keep" to "Uninstall". (Addresses: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2017-05/msg00525.html) - Allow click-to-activate in the package list control.- Improve the unhelpful error message "Can't open (null) for reading: No such file".
- Remove some messagebox spam when using file:// protocol URLs for a package repository without a compressed setup.ini.
- Some source code cleanups and cruft removal. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
