  It used to be more common a couple of years ago, when there were some
packages with buggy dependency lists, but we thought we'd fixed all those.  In
particular, bash itself requires libintl8 and the current setup.ini file
correctly reflects this dependency, so it really should not have happened.

  Can you describe the *exact* steps to reproduce this problem, i.e.
everything you clicked or typed and the state of any settings, starting with
downloading setup.exe and running it?

    cheers,
