My appologies. I had thought that changing the Subject line would start a new thread when I did a reply to the cygwin email
address.

I do see the /bin and /usr/bin now (/usr/bin didn't show up for some reason previously. I'll assume I fat fingered the dir
name.); however the setup installation still fails. Whether or not I can manually execute a work around wasn't my point. The
gnome-icon-theme.sh and hicolor-icon-theme.sh installation scripts don't work as written and this should be corrected.
