You can call any specific version by name (e.g. automake-1.9) but the unversioned command "automake" has to be set to the desired version. You do this with the "alternatives" command. See also <http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2005-07/msg00361.html> and <http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=cygwin&m=112528219929429&w=4>. > It gave me a warning about 1.4 being required by the stable > version -- re-running version gives the same results: You should deselect/uninstall the -stable and -devel packages, they are just placeholders that require the new packages.
