So, as far as I can see, the only way to get rcs 5.8.2-1 is to globally select "Curr" and *don't click on rcs at all*. So, to upgrade rcs and nothing else, I'd have to globally select "Curr" and manually change every package *except* rcs to "Keep", leaving rcs alone. That seemed like a lot of work and error prone, and I knew I was going to be doing all this several times, and who knows whether I'd run into other problems on the way. So instead, I elected to upgrade my entire system to "Curr", even though that's not really what I wanted. If anyone can explain what's going on here (is this a bug? or something wrong with my thinking?) and how to do this simple operation, I'd really appreciate it.
I'm not sure why you cannot get back to 5.8.2-1. I can but I don't have 'rcs' installed so my cycle just goes from Skip-> 5.8.2-1->5.8.1-1->Skip->.... I guess if all else fails, try uninstalling and reinstalling 'rcs'. -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
