I have also just started getting this error - but it was working well quite recently, like a week ago or so. Now, CygWin installation is failing in the same way.
Any news on this?
So it seems to me like some problem with CygWin repositories/mirrors:
I switched to the official CygWin install action, and specified manually some mirror. It worked. Than, after a while - it stopped working in the same way as this action. Initially, I thought that it is something due to mirror overuse by the CI (the build was executed several times), but then I had a look at the contents on the mirror - the signature files that were present when it was working (I checked!) were gone. So, it seems like some unfinished/invalid update of CygWin repositories(?) that propagates.
If it is so, this causes issues in case of every CygWin installation action (or whatever using CygWin's installer).
I believe the recent outage is the problem described in the Signature files missing thread on the Cygwin mailing list. Assuming that is the case, I think it should be resolved now, at least for most mirrors.
I still get "Unable to resolve dependency 'chocolatey'" messages--as I had before the recent problem started--but Cygwin is able to install and run again for me on CI with this action.
Yep, it seems it is working, now.
(I meant: the CygWin installer, as I wrote I started using a different action...).
When using the action today, the output is:
Does it really try to install chocolatey itself?
