The update gave the following error:

The File is in use or some other error occurred.
Please stop all Cygwin processes and select "Retry", or select
"Continue" to go on anyway (the file will be updated after a reboot).
and a similar message about the misc fonts.
- Reboot did not help
- After uninstalling the packages, creating the directory
/etc/X11/fontpath.d and installing them again,
This looks like a packaging error. Yaakov, shouldn't installing
xorg-x11-fonts-* create /etc/X11/fontpath.d if it doesn't exist? From
https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=etc%2FX11%2Ffontpath.d&arch=x86_64
it appears that terminus-fonts is the only package that creates this
directory.
