Updates using 1.5.25 have always worked, so I had assumed my setup configuration files had managed to stay intact. But, after reading the new User Guide I tried the new setup.exe and after about the third package download from ftp://mirrors.kernel.org I got: Can't open G:/installs/cygwin/packages/ftp%3a%2f%2fmirrors.kernel.org%2fsourceware%2fcygwi n%2f/release/GNOME/_obsolete/atk/atk-1.26.0-1.tar.bz2.tmp for writing. and when I click OK on that, setup just exits. There is no _obsolete subdirectory in that tree. What does one do now??? Harry McGavran -- Harry G.
