> setup should probably *never* suggest either going backwards or uninstalling.
Never say never? Suppose a showstopper bug is found in a released package - say one which could result in filestore or configuration corruption. The quickest solution would be to revert to the previous version, and to make this painless (and avoid traffic here) having the downgrade done automatically by setup would be nice. A flag in setup.ini to indicate that a package version has been withdrawn would do - something like "withdrawn : <version>". Of course the correct solution would be to rebuild the previous working version with a higher number, or even better, to fix the bug, but sometimes time is of the essence. -- Cliff -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
