[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated/Test: base-files-4.3-2

Sat Sep 17 21:36:00 GMT 2016

Base-files has been updated to version 4.3-2. This is a feature
release, currently available for testing (you need to manually select
that version in setup.exe).
4.3-2 (bugfix/feature release)
 * etc/defaults/etc/skel/.bashrc: Remove outdated comments on
 completion and mention the bash_completion package as a
 prerequisite. See cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-03/msg00207.html
 * etc/postinstall/base-files-profile.sh: If a non-default file is
 kept, show a diff to the default version if /bin/diff is
 installed and the target is a plain file.
 * etc/postinstall/base-files-profile.sh: Do not touch file before
 installing so the modes are kept intact, like cygport is already
 doing for some time. Reported by Christian Franke, see
 cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-09/msg00059.html
4.3-1 (feature release)
 * Cygwin.bat: Add to base-files. This version is independent of
 the actual install path, see:
 cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-08/msg00617.html
 * etc/defaults/etc/profile: Allow the use of the unaltered
 existing system PATH by setting the system variable
 CYGWIN_USEWINPATH.
 * etc/defaults/etc/profile: avoid second invocation of
 /usr/bin/hostname. Reported by Helmut Karlowski, see
 cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-12/msg00080.html
 * etc/postinstall/base-files-mketc.sh (WINETC): Use /proc/cygdrive
 prefixed path which keeps working even if the user changes the
 /cygdrive prefix after installation.
