Re: Installing 1.5?


Sadly, that seems to grab an up to date setup.

http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/ pointed me to
http://cygwin.com/setup-legacy.exe, which seems to be what I want...
though that installer makes wine explode, too
( it fails because /etc/postinstall/cygwin-doc.sh etc. don't get installed ).
Happily, the installed cygwin seems to work (modulo not
having postinstall).

I don't s'pose somebody could build setup-legacy.exe with the
old cygwin?
