[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: setup (2.911)

Sat Jan 1 14:15:09 GMT 2022

Hello, I had a problem building, which resulted in two missing dependencies, as follows:
mingw32-libzstd-static mingw64-libzstd-static
The error message is as follows:
Curl error (7): Couldn’t connect to server for https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jturney/mingw-zstd/repo/fedora-35/dnf.repo?arch=x86_64 [Failed to connect to copr.fedorainfracloud.org port 443 after 29 ms: Connection refused]
How can I solve this problem?

Thanks! Yes, there's a few things wrong with how that permission is
detected and it's presence reported.
I've uploaded setup 2.912 with an attempted fix.
 https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.912.x86_64.exe
 https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.912.x86.exe
Please try that, and see if it improves things for you?
