What exactly is: "local package directory".

  It's the directory where setup.exe keeps local copies of all the packages it
installs, which you select on the fourth screen of setup.exe.

  My directory (/updates) is
void of any *.ini files and it still complains.  The only file "close"
in my whole installation is a "setup-2.ini" which always seem to get
re-created. Is maybe the mirror-site has an out-of-date .ini file? (/updates/ftp%3a%2f%2fmirror.internode.on.net%2fpub%2fcygwin%2f)

  Nah, it's maybe because I had my head on back-to-front when I wrote that
first reply:

  "The current .ini file is from a newer version of setup.exe ..."

  What you actually need to do is download a fresh copy of setup-1.7.exe from
the cygwin website.  'scuse my confusion.

    cheers,

I'll postpone that activity til version cygwin 1.7 becomes official.
