Downloading individual packages and trying to install them by hand is 
not supported.  If you keep insisting on trying to fix the problem this 
way, you will probably annoy everyone and won't get any help at all.

The only supported way to install a Cygwin package is to use setup.exe. 
  If it is not working for you, you need to figure out what you're doing 
wrong with setup.exe, not try to work around it.  Most likely, you're 
not selecting Vim in the package list.  setup.exe installs a fairly 
minimal set of packages by default, and Vim is not one of those packages.
