That's true thank you. But in fact i need to run the setup program without asking anything to the user so i pass the -q option to the setup and also : -R : to specifie where to put the root -L : to specifie that i want a local install -l dir : to specifie where are stored the packages
but this last option only works if cygwin has never been installed before unless this option will be overwritten by the /etc/setup/last-cache file. To avoid that problem i found that the easier way was to simply remove the /etc/setup/last-* files before running the setup as this i can update cygwin from where i want. i just explained in case someone has the same problem.
