My cygwin installation directory is in the users windows home directory, eg:

W10dev:/: cygpath -w /
C:\Users\framstag\cygwin

Shall I use setup-x86_64 -B ... ?

I found a directory named C:\Users\framstag\cygwin\.pkg-cache
Is this the value I sould use for $pkgdir ?

This seems not to be true for my installations.
How can I add the defaults for $rootdir $pkgdir $site afterwards?
