Even if I slightly compress the command line created that way by using a
single "-P" option followed by the string of comma separated package
names, I end up with a command line consisting of some 16700 characters!
I'm not at all sure how Windows and/or "setup-x86*.exe" would react to
that.
My W7 64bit had no complain for 23004 byte line
;-)
Besides, since "cygcheck" apparently finds the relevant information in
some file, and "setup-x86*.exe" apparently finds the relevant informat-
ion in some file, too, it would perhaps be way easier to just provide
the correct file in the correct location on the new machine.
Any ideas along these lines, anybody?
