Apologies for the rendering of the original email. Email client did

Getting consistent permission denied errors on postinstall of
ca-certificate.

It appears to be oversight, out of a well-intentioned attempt to
protect script generated reference files.

There error as it appears in setup.log.full:

2022/08/26 11:39:07 running: e:\cygwin-x86_64\bin\bash.exe --norc 
--noprofile "/etc/postinstall/ca-certificates.sh"
/usr/bin/ln: failed to create symbolic link 
'/etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/directory-hash/ca-certificates.crt': 
Permission denied
/usr/bin/ln: failed to create symbolic link 
'/etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/directory-hash/ca-bundle.crt': 
Permission denied
2022/08/26 11:39:21 abnormal exit: exit code=1

The directory permissions are:

$ ls -ld /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/directory-hash/
dr-xr-xr-x 1 joebloggs Domain Users 0 Aug 26 11:39 
/etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/directory-hash/

I've experienced this on two installs, both where I run setup exe with
-B, no privelege elevation). Both installs have had an manual
manipulation of the directory, or its parents up to /etc.
