cygwin fails #333

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The Cygwin setup gets as far as selecting a mirror but then reports that the 
.ini file is too old and there is a parsing error. It then exits.

Running the 1.7 setup in a fresh WINEPREFIX continues without a problem.

Is Winetricks using an old version of Cygwin?

No I didn't see that. Not really relevant seen as 
ftp://www.fruitbat.org/pub/cygwin/circa/2009/09/08/111037 is an empty directory.

If there was something in there then winetricks can be easily patched to 
reflect this, but there's no point at the moment.
