setup.exe -- ver 2.249.2.2 failure


Hello,

I have downloaded and run the newest setup.exe (version 2.249.2.2) on three
different machines.  Two running Win2kpro, and one running WinXPPro.  In
every case, regardless of the server I chose to download from (I tried
several on all machines) The download fails on the file
'_ipdate-info-dir-00006-1.tar.bz2'   I finally managed to get it to work by
expanding the list of packages to install and unselecting 'setup: The Cygwin
Net Distribution installer and updater program'  If I have any version
selected for installation, then it fails.  But by skipping this package it
succeeds.

Is this package necessary for cygwin?  Is this a known bug?

Thanks,
--James
