1) The appropriate list for this discussion is cygwin-apps@cygwin.com
Ehm.. of course it is.
2) I've checked in a quick option --no-replaceonreboot that does this, for you to build upon. It needs building upon because failing to replace those files *will* require a roll-back of the rest of the package that failed, or you end up with an inconsistent package state. (i.e. imagine you upgrade ssh and ssh-agent.exe isn't replaced. Ooops. So currently if you use this flag, and it's triggered, you will have to shut down the offending software and run setup.exe again.
I guess with transactional install you mean something like returning to the package list with the not-correctly-installed packages marked as "install" or "reinstall" be ok, it that case?Oh, and BTW: the patch was about 2 minutes work :}. Doing transactional installs will be somewhat more :}.
