Good idea, although that would entail unnecessary (and unwanted) updates, for example, the Cygwin DLL would get updated whatever package you installed, even if the package was built years ago.
Indeed and upgrading Cygwin itself is the very thing I was trying to avoid.
On the other hand, Cygwin package maintainers do a pretty good job of not breaking existing setups, so "update everything" (to the "curr" version) is usually a safe bet.
True, and anything else is unsupported.
