Re: [PATCH] - setup.exe --text-mode and --current-user-only options

Sorry, I wasn't aware of these changes for 1.7. Does this mean that the
1.5 version of setup is not modified anymore? If so, I'll just keep
using my own patched setup.exe.

Internally tracked at http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6689


Please keep discussion on cygwin-apps@

I would say the setup-1.5 will still stay for a while, at least until autumn. So why not.

BTW. The patch does not apply cleanly to the latest setup snapshot 2.588
I've added a fixed version to bugzilla

Please consider the following patch to setup. (I tried to follow the
patch submission guidelines, please correct me if I missed
something).

This definitely conflicts with the direction that setup is moving in. In the 1.7 patches that I've been (slowly!) working on, the text/bin
choice is completely removed from setup because it's no longer stored in
the registry. To get textmode with 1.7 you edit fstab.
