What does '/etc/setup/install.db' say?
OK, there was a line for emacs. I removed it.
Now there is no "current" revision level shown; however, Setup still proposes updating the package. It is also shown, correctly, on the "not installed" panel. This occurs both for "latest" and "test" selections.
Do you still have 'emacs.lst.gz' in the '/usr/setup' directory? I'm not
certain that this has any bearing on what you're seeing but it's assumed
that the files in this directory and the packages listed in 'install.db'
are in sync.
There was, I deleted it. It made no discernible difference.
I'm guessing one of the SETUP.INI files must be mis-coded, I'll prowl
about in them.
BTW, you don't need to reply to my address as well. I read the
list (and set my "Reply-To").
Yeah, I always "Reply-All", your "cygwin-apps-lh" address just bounces.
