Thanks Denis, with your instructions I was able to successfully get the exact packages that I wanted. https://cygwin.com/install.html seems to infer that source truly is included when installing everything: <<<<< A: You do not want to do this! This will install an enormous number of packages that you will never use, including debuginfo *****and source***** for every package.>>>>> Perhaps a button could be added on the setup window for those who want to install all binaries and associated configs but without every debuginfo file, or at least a two or three line help window with an OK button. I initially tried the "default install," but python and other packages were missing, so, to save time I installed everything. I've become accustomed to make regular use of a wide range of packages. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
