Pardon this OT post, but I thought that some of the readers of this

The course focus is the software life cycle. Problem definition,

I've been noticing an issue with cygwin that I find annoying and would
like to fix.
Ive never submitted a cygwin problem report before so this is a first.
My issue now is that I dont actually understand the problem well
enough to give a good report.
Here is what is happening:

Over the last several days I've been reading the thread that
eventually migrated to a discussion of combining rebase and perlrebase
as one.
I've largely ignored it because I have never had a problem with cygwin
that wasn't my fault.
It seems more and more this rebase deal is coming up and I'm sta

Thanks to comments from many on this list I've been working (slowly)
on a autoupdate script for cygwin.
I decided on three separate parts.
1) check setup version
2) check packages to be updated
3) update
My plan was to create a windows batch file that checked if a setup.exe
update was needed and

Today I tried to install cygwin on a work machine that I do not have
permission to admin.
I'm a Math Prof here so I just get to use the machine on my desk.
on my laptop I am the admin so I installed cygwin for all users. No
biggie, only user is me.
I use mintty on the advice of some folks on th
This question is more for my personal curiosity than any problem I'm having.
I've noticed that setup.exe has been updated several times recently
and I'm curious as to whats in setup that would need to be changed.
I understood setup-legacy when we switched from 1.5 to 1.7
As far as I know, setup.

I'm running cygwin 1.7.x and I've been pretty faithful with running
